Mangoes are primarily grown in tropical and subtropical regions around the world. The leading producer by far is India, which accounts for about 54.2% of global mango production, producing around 25-26 million tons annually

. Other major mango-growing countries include:

  • China, producing about 3.8 to 4 million tons
  • Indonesia, with around 3.6 to 4.1 million tons
  • Mexico, producing approximately 2.4 to 2.7 million tons
  • Pakistan, with about 2.6 to 2.7 million tons
  • Brazil, producing roughly 2.1 million tons
  • Malawi, producing about 1.7 to 1.9 million tons
  • Thailand, producing around 1.6 million tons
  • Bangladesh and Egypt also contribute significantly to global production

Mango cultivation is widespread across South Asia, Southeast Asia, East and West Africa, the tropical and subtropical Americas, and the Caribbean. In Europe, mangoes are grown in specific subtropical areas such as Andalusia (mainly Málaga province) and the Canary Islands in Spain, where the climate permits tropical fruit cultivation

. In the United States, mangoes are grown in Florida, California, and Hawaii, though Hawaiian mangoes cannot be exported to the mainland

. Overall, mango trees thrive in frost-free tropical and warmer subtropical climates with a well-defined dry season to stimulate fruit production
