History

Early cultivation and trade in mango spread with settled agriculture across temperate and tropical growing regions.

Regional cuisines developed distinct preparations, preservation methods, and cultivar preferences for mango.

Orchard expansion, maritime trade, and cold storage extended commercial mango beyond local harvest seasons.

Modern cultivars, controlled-atmosphere storage, and global logistics made mango a year-round staple in retail and food service.
