 July 15 Is Mango Day in Japan!

7月15日芒果日

In 2000, Okinawa Prefecture designated the 15th of July, the peak shipping season for mangoes, as 'Mango Day', and is conducting a sales promotion campaign to promote the appeal of Okinawan mangoes - 'ripe, fresh and tasty' - and to increase consumption.

2000年，冲绳县将芒果的运输旺季7月15日定为“芒果日”，并开展了一项促销活动，以宣传冲绳芒果魅力——“成熟、新鲜、美味”——并增加消费。

Okinawa's mango production accounts for approximately 50% of the national share, making it the largest producer in the country, and is a representative product that drives the prefecture's fruit tree industry, which makes the most of the characteristics of the region's subtropical marine climate, the only one of its kind in Japan.

冲绳县是日本全国最大的芒果产地，其芒果产量约占日本全国份额的50%。冲绳县充分利用了该地区亚热带海洋气候的特点，把在日本绝无仅有的芒果作为推动本县果树产业发展的代表性产品。
