  • Why Pre-booking?
    Storing mangoes after plucking is not possible and sales cannot be planned after harvest. Different varieties of mangoes are harvested at different intervals during the season, so it is not practical to open bookings partially as it can lead to confusion. We predict the harvest time and regularly update it on our website. Mangoes are plucked only when they are mature, and quality is our prime concern. Therefore, there may be a delay after booking (pre-booking) to ensure that the mangoes are of the highest quality before dispatch.

  • Where do you source mangoes from?
    At AR4 Fresh, we source most of our mangoes from family-owned-operated farms in Yadadri. Limited quantities of some varieties, such as Alphonso, are sourced from the best organic farms in Maharashtra. In case of a shortage, we source from known farms that follow the same natural, organic, and biodynamic practices with our guidance. Before procuring from other farms, we conduct lab testing to ensure the quality of the mangoes. We make sure that all our mangoes come from trusted sources that follow the same practices as us to ensure the highest quality and safety for our customers.
  • What is the difference between your mango & other mangoes?
    Our mangoes come mainly from our farms where strict supervision is maintained at every stage from growing to harvesting, unlike other farms where they are leased out. Bagging of all mangoes is done, which is a unique process followed in our farms in India. It enhances the quality, appearance, and taste of the mangoes. Harvesting is critical for the taste of mango. We harvest them only when they are mature, and every time only a few fruits from a single tree are cut depending on the maturity. In contrast, in other farms, a section of the farm or complete farm is harvested in one go irrespective of the maturity of mangoes. Post-harvest processes like desapping, hot water treatment, and drying are followed stringently for the complete crop. • Natural ripening is adhered to, unlike other farms where Carbide is used for instant ripening (only colour change takes place). Packing is done as per International standards in aerated corrugated boxes with proper cushioning.
  • How fresh is the produce?
    At AR4 Fresh, we pluck matured mangoes twice a week. The mangoes are allowed to ripen naturally for 5-10 days, depending on the variety and weather conditions. We ship the mangoes when they are semi-ripe to ensure that they are in the best condition when our customers receive them. Ripe mangoes can be identified by their change in color, aroma, and softness. We are committed to delivering high-quality, naturally ripened mangoes to our customers.
  • Where are you based?
    AR4 Fresh is located in Hyderabad, India. AR4 Fresh is open to partnerships anywhere in the world. We plan to expand our pickup locations worldwide, especially in India and the USA. If you are interested in being a part of our pickup locations, please write to us at hello@ar4fresh.com.
  • What does a mixed box of Mangoes contain?
    At AR4 Fresh, we offer mixed boxes that contain a minimum of 3 varieties of mangoes. Our goal is to include as many different varieties as possible in each mixed box to provide customers with a diverse mango experience. We ensure that each box contains at least one premium variety such as Himayat or Alphonso, depending on availability. We believe that this approach allows customers to try new and different varieties of mangoes, while also enjoying their favorites. Our mixed boxes are a great option for those who want to taste a variety of delicious, high-quality mangoes.
  • Why are they so costly?
    We prioritize the health of our customers and strive to provide them with healthy fruits. We follow very stringent procedures, from caring for the plants during monsoon to harvest, where they are given optimum manures and replenished. We bag each mango on the tree to ensure high-quality produce, which is a labour-intensive activity. Harvesting is done with utmost care, and post-harvest treatments such as desapping, hot water treatment, cold water treatment, drying with cloth, and natural ripening for 5-7 days are also labour-intensive and occupy warehouse space (which comes at a cost). We have to factor in an additional cost due to the high wastage of mangoes as we pack only the best quality produce.
  • Is it a good idea to give fresh mangoes as a gift to my employees?
    Fresh fruit in the workplace can bring wellness, boost morale, and increase productivity. Giving seasonal fruit as a surprise to employees can show them that you care and lead to benefits such as goodwill, higher output, improved loyalty, and employee retention. We can customize gift packs with your branding to make the gift more personal and special for your employees.
  • Can I gift to other people and in multiple locations?
    Multiple addresses can be added to the Address book. The shipping address can be selected for gifting purposes. If there are more than 10 addresses, the list can be sent via mail or WhatsApp. Our team can help to create the orders for the different addresses.
  • What are the black spots or marks on the Mango?
    Black spots or dots on mango skin can indicate high sugar content. Some natural blemishes or marks on mango skin can occur due to branches touching them during growth. These marks and blemishes are natural and do not affect the quality or taste of the mango.
  • What is spongy tissue in Alphonso?
    Alphonso mangoes can sometimes have a natural disorder where a portion of the fruit becomes soft inside, while the exterior looks normal. This can only be detected once the mango is fully ripe. This occurrence is common in Alphonso mangoes. However, due to our organic practices and post-harvest techniques, the occurrence of this disorder in our mangoes is minimal. If such a mango is received, one can still consume the remaining portion of the fruit. Due to the natural occurrence of the disorder in some Alphonso mangoes, we cannot offer any refunds, store credits, or replacements for affected fruit.
