Kempegowda International Airport Bengaluru (BLR Airport) has concluded its most successful mango season, exporting 921 MT of mangoes globally.

Sourced from the lush mango belts of Karnataka and neighbouring regions, BLR Airport helps deliver this golden harvest from local orchards to consumers worldwide. This season’s success reflects BLR Airport’s growing role as a global hub for perishables.

Top five international destinations include Dulles (IAD) Dallas–Fort Worth (DFW), San Francisco (SFO), Chicago (ORD) and Seattle (SEA).

The success of this mango season speaks to the collaborative efforts of our regulatory bodies, airline partners, cargo handlers, trade promotion councils, trade bodies and farming communities.”
