Overview

This project identified the various components of the representative supply chains for mangoes in Pakistan and associated impediments and constraints. In addition to providing a scope for a subsequent supply chain project, this stand alone study provided valuable information on existing supply chains in Pakistan.

Project outcomes

  • Identified the types of markets, their needs, and the various components and associated impediments in representative supply chains.
  • Reviewed the policy environment influencing mango production, distribution and marketing and assessed if this was likely to hinder development of more competitive mango supply chains.
  • Identified options to build better commercial linkages between all components of the supply chain.
  • Provided recommendations for an R&D project to improve the competitiveness of mango supply chains in Pakistan.
