2,000 boxes of Alphonsos at APMC create a record for Feb
The APMC yard at Vashi on Saturday received a record quantity of Alphonso mangoes for February. As many as 2, 005 boxes (4 to 6 dozen per box) of Konkan Alphonso hit the wholesale market. Traders said that in the last 15 years, mango arrivals on Saturday were a record. That’s more than twice the quantity of last year. On this day, last year’s supply was just 1, 000 boxes. Also, 850 boxes of Karnataka mangoes reached the city. Prices in the wholesale market were between Rs 2,000 and Rs 5,000 per box. The premium quality fetched between Rs 3, 000 and 5, 000 a box. Sanjay Pansare, a former APMC director and mango trader, said, “The reason for bumper supplies is good flowering in October with ideal weather.”
