India has expanded its footprint of mango exports to the newer countries this season, notwithstanding logistical challenges posed by COVID19 pandemic. In a major initiative which would boost mango export potential from the eastern region especially to middle eastcountries, a consignment of Geographical Identification (GI) certified Fazil mango variety sourced from Malda district of West Bengal was exported today to Bahrain.The consignment of Fazil mango was exported by APEDA registered DM enterprises, Kolkata and imported by Al Jazira group, Bahrain.<\/p>\n

APEDA has been initiating measures to boost mango exports from the non-traditional regions and states. It has been conducting virtual buyer-seller meets and festivals to promote mango exports.This shipment to Bahrain comes a few days after APEDA organized a mango promotion programme at Doha, Qatar where nine varieties of mangoes including GI certified from West Bengal & Uttar Pradesh were displayed at the stores of importer Family Food Centre.<\/p>\n

The nine varieties which were exported includes GI certified\u00a0Khirsapati<\/em>\u00a0(Malda, West Bengal),\u00a0Lakkhanbhog<\/em>\u00a0(Malda, West Bengal),\u00a0Fazli<\/em>\u00a0(Malda, West Bengal),\u00a0Dusshheri<\/em>\u00a0(Malihabad, Uttar Pradesh) and\u00a0Amrapali<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Chausa<\/em>\u00a0(Malda, West Bengal) and\u00a0Langda<\/em>\u00a0(Nadiya, West Bengal).<\/p>\n
