The aromatic 'Kesar' mangoes from India are now gracing select Seattle stores, thanks to a dedicated initiative by the Indian Consulate General.

Tracing back to 2006 when US policy changes first welcomed Indian mangoes, the Consulate's efforts have expanded this access to renowned retail chains, including Costco.

Consul General Prakash Gupta highlighted this cultural and culinary exchange during a Fox 13 News segment, marking a milestone in the Indo-US agricultural trade narrative.
