In the pilot year, Aamoré Alphonso mangoes are making their debut on the world stage, reaching consumers across the USA, Europe, the UK, Abu Dhabi, and select cities in India. The global launch for a product of this nature, symbolizes a confident step forward for Indian smallholder farmers. Currently, customers Delhi NCR can order Alphonso mangoes from aamore.co.in.

It is a testament to what Indian farmers can achieve with the right support and resources. By presenting Aamoré on the global market, we’re not just offering a premium product but also challenging the traditional confines of smallholder farming. Our farmers are not just cultivators; they are forward-thinking entrepreneurs ready to make their mark on the world.”

 

Aamoré focuses on the two core pillars of the community, the farmer and the consumer. For Farmers, it is an opportunity to realise significantly higher incomes, sustainably and independently. On the other end, for consumers worldwide, Aamoré delivers an unparalleled experience of the highest quality of Alphonso Mangoes; a fruit that is authentic GI Certified and lives up to the promise of being the King of Fruits.
