G & T Vanprowess Ltd has mastered the Best ways to export cashews from Africa seamlessly, with over ten years of export, import, and logistics experience
Given that the continent, especially countries like Nigeria, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Tanzania, and Benin, produces some of the world’s best quality raw cashew nuts, exporting cashews from Africa can turn out to be quite a lucrative business when done and sourced strategically through G & T Vanprowess Ltd.
Below is a step-by-step guide to the most effective and assured ways of exporting cashews successfully:
1. Understand the Cashew Market
Target Markets: Concentrate on high-demand destinations such as India, Vietnam, UAE, USA, and the EU nations.
Product Type: Determine whether you will export RCN raw cashew nuts or processed kernels. Processed kernels command a higher price, but their processing requires larger investments.
Market Research: Study current international prices, import regulations, and buyer specifications in regard to size, moisture content, grade, etc.
2. Register and Obtain Licenses
- For a legitimate operation and to gain trust from other countries, have:
- Incorporation with the Corporate Affairs Commission or equivalent in your country
- Export License from your national export promotion council, e.g., NEPC in Nigeria
- Tax Identification Number (TIN)
- Phytosanitary Certificate from the agricultural quarantine service
- Certificate of Origin
- Quality Certification – from an approved standards organization or inspection body
3. Source High-Quality Cashews
G & T Vanprowess has an array of verified local farmers or cooperatives scattered across Africa where we source our quality products from. Nut moisture content should be below 10%, nut count 180–200 nuts/kg, with clean shells. We ensure that all our products are well and properly dried, then sort them before packaging.
4. Proper Packaging and Storage
Raw nuts in jute bags or vacuum-sealed polybags; processed kernels in tin-lined cartons. Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated warehouses to prevent mold and spoilage. Label with weight, grade, and origin.
5. Negotiate Payment and Shipping Terms
Use secure international payment methods.
Letter of Credit, LC: Safest for both parties.
Advance Payment: For trusted, long-time buyers.
Documentary Collection (D/P or D/A): Medium risk control.
Shipping options: Sea freight is normally containerized.
FOB or CIF terms, whichever is agreed upon by the buyer, are to be chosen. 7. Partner with Logistics and Inspection Companies Use reputable freight forwarders and clearing agents that are familiar with export documentation. Employ the services of SGS or Bureau Veritas for pre-shipment inspection to ensure quality and quantity, assisting in gaining buyer trust. 8. Buyer Trust and Visibility Create a professional export website and social media presence. Register on trade directories and B2B platforms. Provide product samples, lab test results, and consistent communication with buyers.
