Mango season varies by country and hemisphere: Pakistan's season runs June through September, India's from April through July, and Southern Hemisphere producers like Australia harvest November through March. This means fresh mangoes are available somewhere in the world during every month of the year, with peak global supply from May through August.

Pakistan Mango Season 2026 (June-September)
Pakistan is one of the world's largest mango producers - around the fifth-largest - growing on the order of 1.8 million tonnes of mangoes per year. The season follows a precise progression, with each variety ripening in a predictable window based on Multan's intense summer heat cycle.
Pakistan Season Breakdown by Variety

we begin dispatch exactly when each variety reaches optimal Brix levels (sugar concentration) in our Multan orchards — never early, never chemically forced.
India Mango Season (April-July)
India is the world's largest mango producer (FAO), growing close to half of the world's mangoes at roughly 26 million tonnes per year (FAOSTAT, 2023). The season starts earlier than Pakistan due to warmer southern regions.

| Alphonso (Hapus) | Maharashtra (Ratnagiri) | April - June |

When to Order Pakistani Mangoes
For the best experience with MMA Farms varieties, we recommend ordering with this timing (and to plan next year, see the 2027 mango calendar):
- Langra: Order by June 1 — this is the first variety and sells out quickly in the opening week
- Sindhri: Order by June 10 — high demand for Pakistan's sweetest mango
- Anwar Ratol: Order by June 5 — demand consistently exceeds supply, so order early
- White Chaunsa Mosami: Order by June 25 — Multan's pride variety
- 12 Number Ratol: Order by July 15 — premium Ratol grade, limited availability
- Nawab Puri: Order by July 25 — the grand finale, most anticipated variety of the season

Frequently Asked Questions
What month are mangoes cheapest in Pakistan?
July is typically the most affordable month, as multiple varieties overlap (Sindhri, Anwar Ratol, White Chaunsa, 12 Number Ratol) and total supply peaks. June prices are higher because only Langra, Sindhri, and Anwar Ratol are available in limited early quantities.
Can you get fresh mangoes year-round?
Yes, thanks to different hemispheres. When Pakistan's season ends in September, Southern Hemisphere countries (Australia, South Africa, Brazil) begin their season in November. Mexico and Thailand bridge the gaps with spring harvests.
When is the best time to order mangoes for export from Pakistan?
For international shipments from MMA Farms, we recommend ordering during peak availability (July for most varieties, August for Nawab Puri) to ensure the best quality and most competitive pricing. Air freight takes 2-3 days to most destinations.
Which Pakistani mango variety has the longest season?
Sindhri has the longest availability window, from late June through early August (approximately 7 weeks). Langra has the shortest at roughly 5 weeks.
Does climate change affect mango season timing?
Yes. Rising temperatures and more frequent extreme-heat events have been affecting mango growing seasons, influencing flowering and ripening timing and, in bad years, reducing yields and shortening individual variety windows. In 2026, for example, unusually high temperatures during the spring flowering period disrupted pollination in parts of Pakistan.
How does MMA Farms ensure each variety ships at peak ripeness?
We test Brix levels (sugar concentration) daily as each variety approaches maturity. Mangoes are only harvested when they reach the optimal Brix reading for their variety — this is why our dispatch dates are precise rather than approximate.
