Supply chain and local in-transit handling of ‘Carabao’ mango from Davao City to Laguna, Philippines

December, 2022
Philippines

Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is a tropical fruit with a unique flavor and high nutritional benefits. It is considered the most important fruit crop in the country based on its high export volume and value, next to banana and pineapple (Department of Agriculture, 2013). The 'Carabao' mango, also known as the 'Super Manila' mango, is a popular variety in the international market. Over the years, there has been an increase in demand for mangoes. However, the Philippines is facing challenges in consistently delivering high quality mangoes to major markets.
