From
Bobo-Dioulasso best area for mangoes we offer for export extra quality mangoes Amelie (Governor), Kent and Keith types.
There are so many mangoes in Burkina Faso that there are no industrial plantations and nobody in the country uses pesticides or fertilizers: it is easier to choose only the best fruits. That's why even if not certified our mangoes are 100% organic. However to meet our customers needs we plan to ask the Ecocert certification for season 2008

For a best taste and quality our mangoes are picked maximum 2 days before sending; there are cleaned to removed any dust or sap.
