Tainan eyes long-term mango export to JapanStaff writer, with CNAThe Tainan City government yesterday said it aims to secure long-term orders from Japan, after it successfully shipped 7,000kg of diced frozen Irwin mangoes to the country. That marked the first time diced, frozen Irwin mangoes — the most popular mango variety in Taiwan — were exported to Japan, the Tainan Agriculture Bureau said. A bag of frozen mangoes produced in Tainan is pictured yesterday. The frozen mangoes would be promoted at a Taiwan-themed event in Tokyo on Saturday next week to gauge the Japanese market’s response and boost brand visibility, he said. The Japanese market is highly competitive, and products must pass the dual test of distribution channels and consumer acceptance, he added.
