CASHEW PRODUCTS HotaNuts
With over a decade in the trade, HotaNuts knows a successful cashew shipment is not about the lowest price — it is about quality consistency across every container. We connect international buyers with the supply network in Vietnam's key processing regions, which account for more than 75% of the world's cashew processing volume. Vietnamese cashew kernels are graded for quality and size to the AFI standard (Association of Food Industries, New York) — the most widely accepted international trade specification in the industry.
