• The mango supply is very tight; India’s Alphonso crop has sold out and Totapuri puree and concentrate will be completely sold out by September.
• Colombia’s summer harvest will only achieve 60% of its projected volume, but this too is already sold.
• There’s hope that Mexico’s forthcoming crop will relieve the global short supply.

A Quick Production Update

• Mexico’s crop should bring some relief to the short global supply, but the production numbers are still unclear.
• Demand will be strong, especially in the US, as the Indian Alphonso Mango crop was already sold out forward between 75-120%.
• India’s Totapuri crop is still running, however, processing 40% of 2019’s volume.
• India’s estimated production volume for 2020 could be less than 15k tonnes, compared to the 50k tonnes achieved in 2019.
• Stocks of both mango puree and concentrate could be completely sold out by September 2020 until the new crop in June 2021.
• Further allocations will depend on Mexico’s production, as Colombia will only achieve 60% of its projected volume and it’s already sold out.

Looking Ahead…

• Tanzania and Kenya will begin mango processing sometime between October and February 2021 for pulp on single strength and some limited quantities for concentrate.
• The varieties considered are Virenge/Ngowe, which has a similar taste of Totapuri Mango from India. 
• Dodo and Boribo will replicate a grade of the Alphonso variety.
