Which countries do you source Raw Cashew Nuts (RCN) from?

We source RCN from a comprehensive global network including East Africa (Tanzania, Mozambique), Indonesia, and a robust West African portfolio covering Benin, Burkina Faso, The Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Senegal, and Togo.

Do you supply RCN to India and Vietnam?

Yes, we are a leading importer and supplier specializing in the strategic supply chain corridor that connects premium African and Indonesian origins to the major processing hubs of India and Vietnam.

What is the typical harvest season for West African cashews?

The West African harvest generally begins in January (Nigeria/Burkina Faso) and extends through October (Guinea-Bissau/Senegal), with peak arrivals and high-volume trade occurring between March and June.

When is the best time to source East African Raw Cashew Nuts?

East African origins like Tanzania and Mozambique typically harvest from September through February, providing a vital counter-seasonal supply that ensures year-round availability for our processing partners.

How do you ensure the quality of RCN at the farm-gate?

Our network maintains a dedicated ground presence at key origins to conduct rigorous quality checks, ensuring the nuts meet international moisture, KOR, and nut-count standards before shipment.

What is KOR (Kernel Outturn Ratio) in the cashew trade?

KOR is the measure of the weight of usable kernels obtained after de-shelling 80kg of raw cashew nuts. We provide certified KOR reports for all our shipments to guarantee yield transparency.

How do you measure Nut Count?

Nut count refers to the number of raw cashew nuts per kilogram. A lower nut count indicates larger nuts, which are generally preferred by premium processors for higher-grade kernel recovery.

What is the maximum moisture content allowed for export?

We strictly ensure our RCN is dried to a moisture level of 8% to 10%. This is critical to prevent spoilage and maintain the integrity of the nut during long-duration sea voyages.

How are the raw cashew nuts packaged for shipment?

RCN is typically packed in high-quality 80kg jute bags. Jute is used because it is a natural, breathable fiber that allows for proper aeration, preventing 'sweating' and mold growth during transit.

Do you provide third-party quality inspections?

Yes, we work with reputable international agencies like RBS for India and Vinocontrol for Vietnam to provide independent, authoritative quality and weight certifications for our shipments.

What are your typical lead times for shipment?

Lead times vary depending on the specific origin and vessel availability, but we typically aim for shipment within 14–21 days of contract finalization.

What payment terms do you accept for RCN trade?

We generally work with standard international trade instruments to ensure security for all parties, including Letters of Credit (L/C) and Documents against Payment (D/P).

Do you manage the end-to-end logistics from Africa to Asia?

Yes, our network handles the entire supply chain, including origin collection, inland logistics, port handling, and sea freight directly to major ports in India or Vietnam.

Which ports in India do you supply to?

We frequently supply to major processing hubs via key Indian ports, including Tuticorin, Vizag, Mangalore, and Mundra.

Which ports in Vietnam do you ship to?

We primarily ship to Ho Chi Minh City (Cat Lai) and other major industrial ports that serve the massive Vietnamese cashew processing infrastructure.

Why are cashew prices volatile?

Prices are influenced by crop size forecasts, weather patterns in West Africa, global demand fluctuations in the snack industry, and shifts in international logistics costs.

Can I get a live harvest update for Nigeria or Benin?

Yes, we provide our partners with real-time 'Current Harvest' updates and market intelligence reports directly through the rawcashewnuts.com portal.

What is the 'New Crop' advantage?

New crop RCN offers the highest KOR and the freshest kernels. Securing stock during the early harvest window is essential for processors who demand premium quality.

How does Indonesian cashew quality compare to African origins?

Indonesian RCN is highly regarded for its excellent KOR and distinct flavor profile, often serving as a premium alternative during the African off-season.
