Mangosteen, a native plant of Indonesia, is popular as the ‘queen of fruits.’ This is widely cultivated in Cambodia, India, Thailand, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, the Philippines, and Africa. The fruit contains maroon- to purple-colored thick skin (pericarp or rind) with gummy latex. The edible portion (aril) consists of white flesh with tiny seeds. The edible portion of the fruit is sweet to sour in taste, juicy, and fibrous.

Please be sure to eat your Mangosteen immediately on the date of arrival as this is a highly perishable fruit.

Nearly a decade ago, Miami began selling fruit at local farmers' markets, initially using a bicycle to pick up produce from nearby farms. As demand grew, Miami Fruit expanded, transitioning to car and van transport.

By 2016, prompted by requests from Facebook friends nationwide, Miami teamed up with partner Edelle Schlegel to establish Miami Fruit officially. Today, they collaborate with numerous local growers and operate their own seven-acre farm. The fruit they source usually ships the day after it’s picked, and it’s oftentimes fruit that simply can’t be found outside of the Tropics.
