MAN BEHIND

Prakash Bang, 68, marketing professional, in 1990 pioneered the concept of gift packing and door delivering premium Alphonso mangoes throughout India and many parts of the world. Obsessed with quality, his hunt for ideal mango orchards ended in sleepy little villages in Devgadh & Ratnagiri in the State of Maharashtra that are known to produce the finest quality of the Alphonso variety. Since then, his famed mangoes have mesmerized thousands of homes throughout the world. In quest to offer more and more varieties of mangoes, Prakash now also introduces the Kesar variety that's best harvested in State of Gujarat. No wonder the press took note. And how!
