Mango, the King of Fruits is here, and the region’s leading hypermarket chain LuLu has kicked off the summer season with “Kingdom of Mangoes” featuring the goodness of the fruit in 70 varieties from more than 10 countries as well as in many forms—from desserts to curries, pickles, smoothies, salads, and much more. The mango festival was inaugurated by Chief Guest Ali Suliman Eisa, Head of Health Control, Sharjah Municipality, in the presence of Indian film actor Jayasurya with Mr. Salim M.A., Director of LuLu Group, and the senior officials of the Hypermarket, at LuLu Hypermarket Bu Tina, Sharjah.
The LuLu ‘Kingdom of Mangoes’ is an annual fruity treat for shoppers. This year, the luscious fruits will fill the aisles from India, Malaysia, Kenya, Brazil, Peru, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Vietnam, Philippines, Columbia, Mexico, Uganda, and the UAE. This festival is running across all LuLu Hypermarkets in the entire GCC and India for shoppers to enjoy the goodness of this tropical fruit.
“I am very pleased to bring our customers the LuLu ‘Kingdom of Mangoes’ Festival this year.

By showcasing these many varieties of mangoes, LuLu is bringing a world of good taste to the UAE,” said Mr. Salim M.A.
