Recently, many Thai customers have come to our website to inquire about mangosteen graders. They hope to classify mangosteen according to grades so that they can sell them at a higher price. Some of them want to be divided by diameter, others by weight.
The total output of Mangosteen in Thailand is expected to reach 378,400 tons in 2022, up 38% year-on-year, according to the Ministry of Agriculture. As production increased, they needed more people to do the manual grading, which was expensive and slow. Therefore, they prefer to use mangosteen sorters instead of manual grading.
The export volume of mangosteen after classification is larger. Lately, Thailand and Japan held a meeting, and The Japanese Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries promised to adjust the rules within this year, paving the way for the import of Mangosteen from Thailand.
