Brooks Mango
Burkina Faso - ORGANIC
The sweet mango
Dried mango strips from gebana Burkina Faso. Inspected and sorted by hand and packaged in our factory in Bobo-Dioulasso. These slices of the Brooks variety are sweet in taste and have only a little acidity. No sulphur, no added sugar. Since autumn 2021, the slices have had a higher moisture content than before. This makes them softer, but can also make them a bit sticky. The higher moisture content has no effect on shelf life.
Dried fruit can be stored at room temperature well past the best-before date in a tightly sealed container away from light. They only become slightly harder after a few months. Before using them for baking or cooking, you can soften fruit that has hardened by placing it in some hot water for a few minutes.
- Grown by 1603 family farmers on an average of 1.8 ha in the Hauts-Bassins and Cascades Regions in Burkina Faso
- Organic, non-irrigated, manually harvested and sorted, never repackaged, all processing done locally, transport: straight from the farm to Bobo-Dioulasso by lorry, by lorry to Abidjan, by ship to Rotterdam
- Purchasing from cooperatives and family farmers straight from the farm since 2005
- Potential for improvement: Provide training for family farmers so that they view themselves as business owners, promote innovative farming practices and biodiversity, raise the lowest wages at gebana Burkina Faso
