Mangoes are more than just a fruit in India β they are a tradition, a flavor of summer, and a booming industry. But have you ever wondered how a ripe mango picked from an orchard ends up in your refreshing mango juice?
In this blog, we take you behind the scenes to see how mangoes are transformed into pulp and packed for global juice brands.
Letβs explore the journey of a mango β from Indian farms to your juice bottle.
1. π³ Harvesting from the Mango Orchards
It all begins in the sun-soaked orchards of India, especially in regions like Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh. Here, varieties like Alphonso, Totapuri, and Badami grow under natural conditions.
Farmers handpick the mangoes when they are fully ripe β ensuring the perfect sweetness and texture for pulp production.
2. πΊ Transport to Processing Units
Once harvested, the mangoes are carefully packed and transported in crates to nearby FSSAI-certified processing plants.
Transportation is done in temperature-controlled trucks to prevent spoilage and bruising, preserving the quality of the fruit.
3. π§Ό Sorting, Washing & Grading
At the facility, mangoes go through sorting belts where damaged or overripe fruits are removed.
Then they are washed thoroughly using clean water and food-grade sanitizers to remove dust, sap, and residues.
After that, they are graded based on size and variety to prepare for pulping.
4. π₯ Pulp Extraction
The clean and sorted mangoes are then sent into automated pulping machines.
Here, the skin and seed are separated, and the smooth, golden mango pulp is collected. No additives or artificial flavors are added β it’s 100% natural mango pulp.
For Totapuri concentrate, the pulp is further processed to reduce water content, increasing shelf life and flavor strength.
5. π¬ Quality Testing
Each batch of mango pulp undergoes strict quality control:
- Brix level (sugar content)
- pH balance
- Microbial safety
- Color and texture
This ensures that the pulp meets export and food industry standards.
6. π§ Aseptic Packing & Sealing
Once approved, the pulp is packed using aseptic packaging in sterile, multilayer bags placed inside large drums.
This method keeps the pulp fresh for up to 18 months without preservatives β perfect for juice manufacturers.
7. π’ Export & Distribution
Now ready for the world, the packed pulp is loaded onto refrigerated containers and shipped to clients across the globe.
Whether itβs juice factories in the UAE, FMCG brands in Europe, or dairy companies in India β everyone gets high-quality, ready-to-use mango pulp.
8. π§ Into Your Juice Bottle
Finally, the mango pulp is mixed with water, natural sweeteners, or other fruits at juice plants to create your favorite drink.
Bottled, labeled, and sold β the taste of Indian summer reaches you, wherever you are in the world.
