Which variety of mango, specific to Haiti, is the only one to have certification for export to the American market ?

89% of players answered correctly.

THE CORRECT ANSWER: Mango Francisque (Madame Francique)

The Francisque mango, often called "Madame Francique", is the spearhead of Haitian fruit exports. Its firm, fiber-free flesh and intensely sweet taste make it a luxury product on international markets, particularly in the United States.Unlike other local varieties, it has benefited from strict phytosanitary certification programs, including hot water treatment to meet USDA standards. Its production is mainly concentrated in the Artibonite department and the Central Plateau. Beyond its commercial success, this sector represents a vital source of foreign currency for the national economy and supports thousands of small producers organized in groups. However, the sector remains vulnerable to climatic hazards and fruit flies, requiring constant technical supervision. Promoting Francisque means keeping Haiti on the world map of tropical agricultural excellence while structuring local value chains.
