Cashew Factory Setup by Country
Local processing, wherever you grow
A guide to setting up a cashew factory in your country — from raw-nut origins in Africa and Asia to the practicalities of building and financing a local plant.
Setting up a cashew factory is increasingly done in the countries that grow the raw nuts — across West and East Africa and South/Southeast Asia — to capture processing value locally instead of exporting raw. The essentials are the same everywhere: secure raw-nut supply, a building with power, water and biomass energy, the right machine line and automation level, labour, and financing via a project report. What differs by country is raw-nut availability, local incentives, labour cost and logistics. TTQ has delivered plants across Africa and Asia and tailors each setup to local conditions.
What every setup needs
- Reliable raw cashew nut supply
- Building with power, water and biomass energy
- The right machine line and automation level
- Labour and a bankable project report

Cashew Production by Country
Raw cashew nuts are grown mainly across West and East Africa and South/Southeast Asia. Processing has historically concentrated in Vietnam and India — a gap African origins are now closing.
