Amazon Produce Network is proud to present our 60cm x 40cm (24in x 15-3/4in) 5-Down Display Box for mangoes with minimum 24-Lb net product weight. Although 60x40cm 5-Down boxes are the industry standard for many commodities, most mangoes are currently packed in 34cm x 25cm (13-1/2in x 10in) 14-Down box. The 60x40cm Display box is intended to resolve issues that retailers have shared as impediments to the mango commodity's enormous growth potential.
This design provides greatly increased pallet stability versus the 14-down box, therefore accelerating loading/unloading and warehouse movements. It also reduces transportation damage claims and the need for airbags and bracing.
At the DC and store level, labor is significantly reduced in picking product with each movement of the 5-Down Display Box equaling almost three of the regular box. This allows partial pallet store orders to be filled faster at the DC and large displays to be built with ease in the store. This larger box will not sink down and sit on other product causing bruising as smaller boxes tend to do when stacked on top of other commodities in mixed pallets.
The increased airflow possible with this design helps to have more consistent pressures when using ripening rooms. The display is very attractive and results in a larger footprint for mangoes within the produce department.
