Guatemala wins first skirmish with Mexico in mango wars

Guatemalan mangoes were off to a good start due to the good quality and color of its mangoes. Mexico competes with Guatemala, due to its cheaper transportation costs, mainly in the US west coast and northern areas.

However, Mexico has lower volumes at the moment. This has positively influenced the first four weeks of the Guatemalan mango season as the sales and distribution have been relatively normal, states Mauro Suazo from Pompano Beach in Florida.
