South Gujarat’s Fruits Go Global Through Value Addition

May 21, 2026

South Gujarat’s traditional fruit farming is rapidly transforming into a modern agro-business model. Known for its mangoes and chikoos, the region is now focusing on value addition through processed products like mango pulp and export-ready fruit items. Farmers are increasingly adopting natural farming methods, improving quality while reducing production costs and boosting incomes. Modern processing units, cold storage facilities and improved transport networks are strengthening the export ecosystem. With support from government initiatives and better infrastructure, South Gujarat’s fruits are now reaching supermarkets in the USA, UK and Gulf countries. From orchards to global supply chains, the region is gaining international recognition and better profits through innovation, efficient packaging and export-driven growth, making South Gujarat a rising hub of processed fruit exports and sustainable farming practices.
