The National Mango Board is offering a limited number of honey and rounds display bins to both U.S. retailers and U.S. mango shippers on a first-come, first-served basis. The 2023 honey bins are ready to ship, while the rounds bins will be ready to deliver in March, according to a release.
The first-come, first-served bin program is designed for shippers to provide mango bins to retailers that are not receiving bins through their account managers at the NMB. Prior to ordering, shippers should check the list of retail partners to avoid sending bins to retailers that are already scheduled to receive bins for their full store count, the NMB said.
This list is included on the bin order form found online.
The bins are colorful and fun, with eye-catching graphics, and are used to boost in-store sales, said the NMB. Seasonal inserts are available to use for nutrition, Cinco de Mango, and grilling messaging, with more to come later this year.
The bins are made of durable corrugated material with an aqueous coating for added strength. All can be found at the NMB website.
The deadline to order the honey and rounds display bins is Feb. 1, or when all bins have been reserved. There is no cost for these bins but quantities are limited.
Those wishing to order should reach out to their NMB consultant. If they don’t know who their consultant is, NMB encourages interested parties to reach out to Tammy Wiard at twiard@mango.org.
The National Mango Board says it is “here to inspire and educate U.S. consumers about the culture, flavor, versatility and nutrition of the world’s most exciting super fruit — the mango.” It is supported entirely by assessments from domestic and imported mangoes and doesn’t rely on any taxpayer dollars or government funding, the NMB said.
