In 2025, the Guatemalan mango industry exported over 3.6 million boxes of 8.8-pound fresh fruit to the United States, a four percent increase from 2024, when shipments reached 3.5 million boxes.
According to local ag news outlet AGEXPORT HOY, this growth confirms the sector’s recovery, driven by a stronger supply and more integrated production planning.
The AGEXPORT Mango Committee emphasized that the season has been marked by strong export performance, the sector’s technical strengthening, and various industry efforts to position Guatemalan mango in international markets.
Luisy Fernanda Monroy, coordinator of the AGEXPORT Mango Committee, explained that 162 certified farms participated in the Guatemalan mango season, and the Tommy Atkins variety registered the biggest volume, accounting for 88 percent of shipments. The cultivar was followed in popularity by Ataulfo, Keitt, and Kent.
“Guatemalan-origin mangoes continue to position themselves in their main markets: the United States, Europe, and Chile,” Monroy said to the publication.
