At Africa Harvest Exporters, our core capability lies in sourcing and delivering exceptional mangoes, meticulously cultivated by our dedicated partner farmers, that embody the perfect fusion of premium quality, appealing aesthetics, and robust durability for international markets.

Consistency is a cornerstone of Africa Harvest Exporters' operations. We prioritize fruit with uniform size and weight from our growers, ensuring a reliable and standardized product for our valued international markets.

Furthermore, we carefully select mangoes with inherent resistance to diseases, guaranteeing that the fruit we export meets the highest standards of excellence and minimizes potential losses throughout the entire supply chain.

Our selection proudly includes sought-after cultivars such as the Tommy Atkins and Kent varieties, renowned worldwide for their exceptional quality and strong market appeal, expertly grown by our trusted partners.

Leveraging South Africa's diverse climate and strategic location, Africa Harvest Exporters, representing local farmers, is establishing a flexible melon export season.

While our northernmost regions, such as Limpopo Province, offer the potential for year-round production for some of our partner farmers, our overall export schedule will be tailored to specific cultivars and international market demands.

Capitalizing on our Southern Hemisphere positioning, we aim to effectively fill market gaps during the Northern Hemisphere's winter months with the melons grown by our network of farmers.

However, we will remain adaptable to variations in weather, such as heavy rains, which can impact harvest timing and shelf life.

This dynamic interplay of factors will enable our developing melon export industry to respond to both natural conditions and global market needs.
