According to Khakhar, “I was pleased with the Australian consumer market and I am expecting it to grow more next year. Our company has shipped approximately 15 tonnes of mangoes to Australia and we are expecting to export 25-30 tonnes by the end of June 2017.”
“Currently in China, only some cities are covered due to numerous documentation requirements and limited knowledge on the part of importers. Korea on the other hand market has very strict on quality. But all boils down to creating the right partnerships with importers will help for us to penetrate these markets.”
Kaushal Khakhar also stated, “Our biggest competition comes from Latin America, but luckily our mangoes are far different in flavour and quality in comparison. Despite Latin America being close to the USA, we were able to export around 275 tonnes of mangoes to the USA last year, while this year the figures are between 350-400 tonnes. Indian mangoes only overlap with Pakistani mangoes, but the production time varies between the two countries.”
The Government of India is also putting right efforts to open up new avenues of export by designing proper protocols and policies. The rights of both exporters and importers are well taken care of, and there have been infrastructure improvements to make the shipment process smooth and sustainable.
