Reliable Cashew Nuts Supply from Nigeria
Nigeria is one of the world’s largest producers of cashew nuts, exporting to over 50 countries. International buyers prefer Nigerian cashew nuts for their high quality, consistency, and availability. Unlike some African countries where government regulations complicate purchases, Nigeria allows local companies to trade freely, making sourcing easier for importers.
Key Cashew Producing States
Major cashew-producing regions include:
-
Oyo (Ogbomosho has the highest outturn, 47–53)
-
Kogi (up to 50 outturns)
-
Other states produce 40–51 outturns on average
These regions provide high-quality raw cashew nuts with large kernels and consistent nut count.
Typical Raw Cashew Nuts Specifications
Buyers should consider the following benchmarks for export-grade nuts:
-
Outturn: 40–51 (high quality at start of harvest in February)
-
Nut Count: 170–205 per kilogram
-
Moisture Content: ≤10%
-
Inspection: SGS
Premium batches offer higher outturns (47–53) during early harvest.
Sourcing Cashew Kernels
Cashew kernel processing is limited in Nigeria, so buyers can:
-
Partner with local processing facilities
-
Set up custom processing operations
-
Buy directly from farmers for reprocessing
This approach reduces cost and increases profit margins while ensuring quality kernels for export.
Safe Sourcing & Export Compliance
When sourcing cashew nuts or kernels, ensure your exporter:
-
Is registered with CAC and NEPC
-
Has a domiciliary account for international payments
-
Provides all required export documentation: Certificate of Origin, Bill of Lading, Inspection Certificate (SGS, Cotecna, Intertek), Phytosanitary and Fumigation Certificates
Payment & Shipping Options
Common international payment methods:
-
Bank Transfer (T/T): 3–5 days via SWIFT, widely used
-
Advance Payment: 30–50% upfront; useful for securing produce
-
Letter of Credit (L/C): Bank-guaranteed payment, safest for both parties
Shipping depends on order volume:
-
Airfreight: Fast, better for small shipments
-
Sea Freight: Cost-effective for large shipments (20 ft container)
Choose FOB or CIF based on your network and control over logistics.
