Hello @Yukka. Unfortunately, I don't have any tips on how you can find out for yourself. I am currently studying how to find out ;) I'll start looking for an answer and ask you to be patient in the meantime. Best regards, Nina

Hello@Yukka
Search the net for "airfreight" or "air transportation of food" and you will get a lot of information. "Personally, I only know the expensive mangoes as airfreight. "
In Switzerland and the UK, food that has been flown in is labeled "Der Flieger" by individual freight forwarders and companies. Bio Suisse has excluded flown-in produce from its range.

Thanks for the tips, @Frederica! Of course I was only thinking of the Migros ;) not a general question.
@Yukka, I was able to find out the following on the subject: We have mangoes flown in, for example, or papayas, mainly premium products. Thanks to air transportation, the fruit can ripen longer on the tree, which makes them tastier. The proportion of fruit and vegetables flown in is in the low single-digit percentage range. However, there are also products from the meat, flower and plant sectors that are transported by air.
Incidentally, we offset the CO2 emissions caused by air transportation in our own value chain.
Is that enough for you?
Best regards, Nina
