The mango export season for Brak Pak has started with the first loads of R2E2 being loaded for Dubai and Auckland.
All of the fruit to date has been airfreighted to the various destinations within a few days of arrival at the J. H. Leavy & Co cool room facilities in Brisbane.
The fruit for New Zealand has to be specially labelled and treated with irradiation prior to departure from Brisbane Airport.
2015 could see a new market opening in the United States of America for Australian mangoes with the potential acceptance of irradiation as the preferred bio security control.
