You can never go wrong with ordering Mango Factory mangoes!
I am so delighted to have found this particular website. After reviewing some 6 or 7 sites, I jumped at the opportunity to patronize a business so close to Ft. Myers where my parents grew up, and where I grew up eating delicious mangos straight from the tree! While my parents now reside in Daytona Beach, my husband and I reside in Georgia. It is my husband who is even more a ‘mango fanatic’ than we are, but not just any mango; they MUST be Florida mangoes! He is from Africa, so he knows about mangoes, and insists that the mangoes from Florida are like those from his home, and far superior to mangoes from other places. Over the years, my Mom has sent Florida mangoes to him that she had a friend forward from Ft. Myers. My husband insists he can tell from the ’smell’ , even prior to tasting, whether the mango is from Florida or not. (I learned that when I tried to ‘appease’ him with some I had purchased from the store from one of the Latin American countries.)Now that my Mother and the person who used to send them to her, are both faced with health challenges, she has asked that I send my husband some mangoes on her behalf. (Please add my name to your mailing list.) I am delighted to have found The Mango Factory, and look forward to what I know will be ‘real’ mangoes, sweet and delicious!
Good old fashioned service, wonderful fruit, fantastic quality and good people to work with. That’s all a body can ask for. Conjures up images of my childhood on the Islands. I developed a whole lot of friends this summer, when they found out I knew a great source for mangoes. Yup … all the way to VA and NY.
Keep up the good work.
We took all the mangos we could carry on the plane last time, we were down in Bokeelia and they were great! Why not fill your suitcases with the wonderful Mangoes you can get at the Mango Factory. The airlines are charging you for the bags anyway,and the fruit is really the best we have ever tasted !
I promised all my friends up North ( Rhode Island ) the best mangoes from Pine
Island……….and of course that’s the ones we got from the Mango Factory.
Thanks Again

The Mango Factory produces the BEST mangoes!! Our family loves their produce and Doug is just awesome at customer service. Very responsive and responsible. These are absolutely the BEST mangoes in the world!!! Thank you so much!!!
The 2010 mango season will open three weeks later this season due to weather conditions. We survived the January cold spell as the bloom didn’t begin until early February (two months latter than the early December bloom in 2009). A tremendous 2nd bloom. began in mid February and then we had three weekend rains three weeks in a row that washed the blooms of pollen and cut the bloom in half. Our Valencia Pride and especilly Kents look promishing but the Keits may be not a plentifuly as last year. We still should have plenty of mangoes but time will tell if we have as many as last year. We still have to worry about potential high winds, but so are the trials of raising tropical fruits…Doug
I have traveled the entire tropical globe from Asia to Australia to South America tasting the best mangos the regions have to offer and their are simply none better than the mangoes from the Mango Factory. These mangos are so big, juicy and sweet, they are like none I have every tasted.
Doug is a scholar, a gentleman and simply a master at his craft. Thank you, Doug.
All My Best,
Jeff
My whole family loves mangos and we’ve stopped buying them in the US because the are usually so bad. I had heard about Florida mangos, but it took me a long time to find a vendor who would ship to me. I was thrilled when I found Doug’s site and read all the comments, but expectation can breed disappointment and I had high expectations as I anticipated the shipment’s arrival. A couple of days after it arrived, when the first piece of fruit was ripe to the touch, we all gathered around and I sliced one open and passed it around the table. The silence was… delicious. We were ecstatic. The huge fruit had a consistent, velvety texture and was packed with flavor, right down to a full sweet finish. We’re hooked!
We grew mangoes in the Philippines but we don’t have Valencia mangoes. My family love it and so as myco-workers.. There are so many different kind of mangoes here in NY and we can’t find it either. Your mangoes are so sweet and feels like just melting in your mouth.
The best part about the Mango factory is that you have the best mangoes and the best employee. Talking about costumer service, CLAUDIA has the work ethics of an employee that all employers want to have. She greet every costumer with a smile and a warm welcome and assists costumer in all their needs. I go to Florida every year during mango season. Two weeks ago I was there and went to Mango Factory and met many mango buyers asking Claudia different questions and I noticed that everyone’s been helped and satisfied. I would like to complement your business for having the best mangoes and CLAUDIA for giving us the best service. Doug, thank you so much for running a perfect business that benefit all of us.
Doug, Thank you for getting me to buy a few Valencia Prides when we were getting the Kents. We just got home & chilled the ripe one & had it for dessert tonight. It was great! Joe & I both grew up in Fort Myers eating mangoes from our parents’ trees, but none were as good as the Valencia Prides. Now living in Seminole, FL we will try the shipping next time, but glad we went to the Mango Factory today & got to talk with you.
