                    [Summary] => After 15 years of negotiations, the United States government has finally given the green light for the export of the Philippines’ national fruit.


The first shipment of mangoes to the US is scheduled this week.


The Department of Agriculture (DA) said this move is both historically and economically significant since it is the first time that the country’s mangoes will reach the US in their fresh form. 


This opens up a huge opportunity for the Philippines to penetrate the $220-million US fresh mango export trade, which is being dominated by Mexico.
