Sugar Mangos prepare for first-ever arrival to the US Market
Goldenberry Farms Sugar Mangos prepare for their debut to the United States market next month
MIAMI, FL – Goldenberry Farms is preparing to export it’s Sweet Sugar Mangos® for the first entry into the United States market, with arrivals beginning the second week of March.
The company has been exporting sweet Sugar Mangos to Europe and Canada for several years, as preparations were being made for entry into the US market.
US consumers will get their first taste of this sweet, pocket-sized mango with a complete marketing and social media campaign titled “We’re Small, Sweet, and Easy to Eat™.”
Not just another mango.
Sugar Mangos™ are naturally grown “pocket mangos” which easily fit in the palm of your hand. The item is very unique due to its thin skin, allowing it to be enjoyed peeled or eaten with their skin, making it an ideal treat for kids or anytime snacking.
Sweet Sugar Mangos have red and yellow, fragrant flesh with a sweet juicy taste and a brix level of 22. Unlike many other exotic mangos, sweet Sugar Mangos do not have a fibrous taste. These miniature mangos are grown naturally, non-GMO, and have a peak harvest season of April through August, with initial imports beginning in March.
Exclusively Grown on the Caribbean Coast.
Sugar Mangos are exclusively grown on Colombia’s tropical Caribbean Coast, close to Santa Marta.
Sugar Mangos enjoy a peak harvest season March - July.
The tropical trade winds and unique soil create an ideal microclimate for this specialty fruit, with an edible skin, much thinner than traditional mangos. The fruit is highlighted for its extreme popularity in the region, known generically as “Mango de Azucar.”
Unlike the generic (mango de azucar), Sugar Mangos undergo a proprietary pre-harvest and cultivation method, with an immediate cool chain, and a patented, food-safe wash applied post-harvest to condition the fruit well for travel and the best possible taste and shelf life.
Goldenberry Farms is a founding member of The Sugar Mango Association, along with leading growers and family farms, to manage the branded “Sugar Mango” product and trademarks at origin, and globally. This approach allows for consistency with quality as well as availability, which helps to give confidence to both growers and consumers. The product is supported by a full social media and digital, as well as in-store marketing campaigns.
“As with other extremely successful branded fruit programs, Sugar Mangos™ is designed to deliver a special and unique taste experience to the consumer, and to allow growers, distributors, exporters, and importers all align in a more precise way to ensure a consistent and quality taste experience,” commented Nicolas Mairon, development director for Sugar Mangos brand and licensing programs.
Goldenberry Farms offers Sweet Sugar Mangos commercially in 2 kilo (4.45 pound) cases, which hold between 17-22 mangos, as well as unique retailer formats such as clamshells.
Specially branded retail kits, POS signage, digital tools, and a social media campaign are all available to help merchandise and sell Sugar Mangos™ in store.
