Get to know your Mangostreifen
Warmes Orange, fruchtiger Geschmack, süßes Aroma und wunderbar saftig – die perfekte Mango. Wir verstehen absolut, weshalb die Früchte so beliebt sind. Nicht umsonst sind die getrockneten Mangos einer unserer Bestseller – und auch wir lieben sie heiß und innig. Doch gerade bei Früchten, die nicht in Europa wachsen und längere Transportwege haben, stellt sich oft die Frage nach Herkunft und Verarbeitung. Wo die Früchte für unsere getrockneten Mangos angebaut werden und wie ihre Produktions- und Lieferketten funktionieren, bis sie bei Dir zu Hause snackbereit sind, erklären wir Dir hier.

Deep dive: KoRo's supply chain
It is very important to us here at KoRo to shorten supply chains where possible and to be transparent about them, in order to enable consumers to make informed decisions. But what exactly we mean by short supply chains sometimes raises questions. This is why we want to explain how we approach the topic of supply chains, what we have already implemented, and where there is still room for improvement. As a comparatively young company on the market, we are still far from perfect and are on a journey towards more direct trade routes and more transparent supply chains. In this article, we would like to give you an insight into the challenges we face on this journey, why transparency in supply chains is important, and how we are approaching this topic.
