Concerns
Perishability
Solution: Keeping an irrigation system during the coldest days of the year to keep the trees frost-free, and continuing with the irrigation system during the driest months. Regularly inspect trees for pests and diseases that can ruin fruit and even kill whole trees. These diseases and pests include fungus, parasites and viruses.
Stocking
Solution: Constantly planting new trees, and if it necessary, we will buy from other owners of mango and citrus groves at a fair market price.
Credit Card and Payment Fraud

Returns & Refunds
Solution: Our shipment is always warranted to be fresh and in good condition. However, exceptions will occur. The return should be done within 30 days after receiving our product. We will issue a refund including the shipping cost for the return within 15 days.
Environmental Issues and Government Regulations regarding Citrus Canker
Solution: Since it is illegal to move live citrus plants and citrus fruits from Florida, we will hire a USDA certified packinghouse to properly disinfect for citrus canker. Once the plants and fruits are inspected, packed, and accompanied by a USDA certificate, shipping will reach other parts of the country.
