It would be easier if you defined keys in your $data array, like:
while (($record = fgetcsv($userFile, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE)
{
$data[$record[0]]= array('color' => $record[1], 'quantity' =>
$record[2], 'price' => $record[3]);
}
fclose($userFile);

(Assuming name is unique)

And then:

$data['mango']['quantity'] = 3;
or
$data['mango']['quantity']++;
whatever you want.

Without changing the array like I said, your code would be like:
foreach($data as $key => $value)
{
if($value[0]=='mango')
{
$data[$key][3] = 'whatever you want quantity to be';
}
}


or write your won array_search_all or array_search_all_recursive function
