However, because of its portability, it is trucked across the country. The northern coastal state of Maharashtra and the southern coastal state of Gujarat produce the majority of the country’s output. “The home market is the most important, with a yearly Chikoo production of roughly 400 thousand tonnes. Such climatic conditions may be found all year in India’s western coastal region, and despite the ups and downs in the weather throughout the year, the conditions remain optimal for chikoo production, with weather variations having no substantial impact on crop productivity.”Īccording to Khakhar, the sapota fruit is largely sold in India, but he believes the fruit has a lot of potential in Europe. “Because Chikoo is a tropical fruit, it flourishes best in a warm (up to 38 ☌elsius) and humid climate. Furthermore, with the conclusion of the second wave of coronavirus in India, transportation costs will be reduced.Īccording to Kay Bee Exports CEO Kaushal Khakhar, the sapota fruit is accessible all year in India: “Called ‘Chikoo’ in India, but called Sapota in other areas of the world, this fruit is very uncommon in terms of seasonality.” The Chikoo tree grows fruits all year, ensuring a continuous supply for both the home and export markets for a whole year. According to the exporter, the fruit’s chocolate or caramel-like flavour should appeal to European consumers. This year, one exporter is doing everything possible to increase the fruit’s popularity in European markets. Sapota is a fruit that is largely sold on the domestic market in India. Also named Sapota in other countries, the chocolate or caramel-like flavour should convince European customers
