MAG™ Melon

Del Monte set out to develop an exceptional melon variety that would meet consumers' growing demand for a melon that is consistent in quality, flavor, and aroma. After much research, Del Monte introduced its proprietary MAG™ melon. The Del Monte MAG™ Melon has a more pleasant, consistent, and concentrated aroma compared to traditional cantaloupes and has a sweet flavor and juicy texture which can be experienced in every bite.

Similar to traditional melons, the MAG™ melon has a relatively short growing cycle and is grown in temperate locations. It is available year round in North America and is grown in Costa Rica, Guatemala, Arizona, and California.

One of the many consumer benefits of the MAG™ melon is its small seed cavity which provides more value per purchase. In addition to the traditional nutritional benefits that a cantaloupe offers, the MAG™ contains higher fiber, protein, carotene, and Vitamin C. With its unique rich golden outer shell color, consistent flavor, and aroma, the Del Monte MAG™ melon is rapidly becoming consumer's favorite melon variety.

Del Monte is committed to maintaining the highest food safety standards to ensure that we provide safe and wholesome products to all of our customers. We have a series of programs that have been implemented with all of our melon varieties including water safety, field and packing facility sanitation, transportation cleaning, finished product testing, and more.
