Pakistan: Mangoes exported to Japan after 16 years
Japan’s business community organised a special launch ceremony of the fruit in Tokyo on Wednesday. Honoured guest Farukh Aamil, Pakistan’s ambassador to Japan, said: “It is a memorable occasion for Pakistan. After huge efforts by Pakistani authorities, the country has successfully exported its mangoes to Japan. However, it is the responsibility of Pakistani exporters to maintain mango quality to capture the Japanese market.”
He added that the Pakistani authorities have been seeking to establish a VHT plant, a condition imposed by Japan to allow the import of Pakistani mangoes, in the country this year to increase the quantity of mangoes. A variety of mango dishes were also presented during the event.
