Where the fruit is grown and how it reaches your door fresh.
Where do your mangoes come from?
Every carton is sourced directly from partner orchards in Sindh and Punjab, primarily around Multan, Mirpur Khas, Rahim Yar Khan and Khanewal. We work without supermarket middlemen so the fruit travels straight from grower to UK pack-house.
How does the daily arrivals from reservation to doorstep work?
Fresh consignments arrive from Pakistan daily. Prepared at the relevant Sindh or Punjab orchards from Monday, airfreighted to the UK midweek, then handed to tracked courier dispatch Monday to Thursday for mainland UK. Delivery dates are estimates, not guarantees.
Is the fruit airfreighted?
Yes. Pakistani mangoes are too delicate for sea freight; they are flown out of Karachi as air-cargo to keep transit short. Sea-freight programmes exist for industrial supply but compromise on ripeness and flavour.
Are there any customs issues?
Pakistani mangoes are an approved import into the UK. Occasional customs holds or weather disruptions can shift the expected delivery by a day or two, when that happens we email affected customers as soon as we know.
Why do supermarkets not sell these varieties?
Supermarkets buy mangoes weeks in advance, picked underripe so they survive long sea-freight and storage. Chaunsa, Sindhri and Anwar Ratol don't tolerate that programme, they only taste right when picked ripe and flown fresh, which is what we do.
