Overview

India is one of the world's largest cashew processors, but the domestic crop alone does not keep processing units running all year. Dheera imports raw cashew nuts (RCN) from major producing countries and supplies them to processors across India, so factories can plan their intake beyond the Indian harvest.

Raw cashew is bought on outturn. Every lot is quoted against a written specification covering kernel outturn ratio (KOR), nut count per kilogram and moisture, with inspection at loading and a cutting test on arrival where the contract calls for it.

Typical uses

  • Cashew processing and shelling units
  • Kernel graders and packers
  • Traders supplying processing clusters

Quality and documentation

Each lot is quoted against a written outturn, nut count and moisture specification. Pre-shipment inspection and an arrival cutting test are arranged where the contract requires them.
