Tommy Atkins Mangoes from AAMRAI Arrive This Winter

While Temba Bavuma and his South African team bask in the glory of recent success in the Test Series in India and their triumph over Australia in the World Test Championship 2025, there is another South African star enjoying the Southern Hemisphere sun — Tommy Atkins Mangoes.

Tommy Atkins Mangoes from AAMRAI mark the arrival of South African summer flavours in Indian winters. One of the most popular commercially cultivated mango varieties in the world, AAMRAI Tommy Atkins Mangoes are a highlight of South Africa’s mango season.

Over the years, farmers from South Africa’s Lowveld region have mastered the cultivation of Tommy Atkins Mangoes. Grown primarily in Limpopo Province, key production areas include Hoedspruit, Malelane, and Tzaneen. These subtropical regions provide ideal climatic conditions for producing high-quality Tommy Atkins Mangoes from South Africa.

Tommy Atkins Mangoes are medium to large in size, typically oval-shaped with a rounded bottom. They feature thick, leathery skin that transitions from green to dark red, with green and orange undertones as the fruit ripens.

The flesh is golden yellow with a firm, slightly fibrous texture. It is the bright, dark red colour of AAMRAI Tommy Atkins Mangoes that gives them their distinctive visual appeal — reminiscent of a setting sun over the Indian Ocean on a warm summer evening along South Africa’s southeastern coast.
