Cashew Nuts

Priced per Tonne
Grown in the South West of Nigeria, our cashews are known for their creamy taste and they are ideal for snacking, confectioneries, and cooking oils. By-products from processed cashews are also valuable in the production of pharmaceuticals and antioxidants. The cashew season runs from February through June or July, with extended stock availability for transactions later in the year. Our primary export markets include Europe,  India, China, and Vietnam. Each nut is cultivated and processed with great consideration to the welfare of our farmers through fair and ethical trade.
