History of Egyptian Mango
Mangoes first landed in Egypt about 200 years ago thanks to Pasha Dynasty . On one of his journeys into Sri Lank he returned with mango trees and planted them in the Shubra Palace,
The mango was first brought to Egypt from Sri Lanka. The fruits cultivated by Sri Lankan farmers are, in turn, derived from Indian varieties.
Later on, Mohamed Ali Pasha planted the first shrubs in 1825.
Cultivating areas
Mangoes grow in areas with high humidity, like coastal areas, such as the Nile Delta. They grow best in tropical regions.
In Egypt, the governorate of Ismailia is the main mango-growing area, known for producing the finest mangoes. The soil and climate of Ismailia are especially favorable for the cultivation of Egyptian mangoes. The city of “Beauty and Enrichment” includes vast areas of fertile agricultural land, producing the most famous Ismaili mangoes.
Celebrating the mango harvest
The season of the mango harvest is always celebrated. Dates for social occasions, especially wedding parties, are often set corresponding to the date of the mango harvest. The faces of buildings, squares, houses and shops are painted in yellow.
The most famous types of Egyptian mangoes are Owais, excellent sugary mango, white sugary, butter-like mango (Zebdea), and Sinara, as well as other famous types of mangoes.
