As a national leader eighth consecutive year the world export of cashew production globally , it is easy to understand why the Vietnam Cashew Association ( Vinacas ) organized this international conference in 2014 , immediately winning special interest groups , NK leading food companies in the world.

 

According to Nguyen Duc Thanh - Chairman of Vinacas , VN is 338 cashew processing hub and has exported to over 80 countries and territories . Particularly in 2013, VN processed 1.2 million tons of crude , exporting over 260,000 tonnes of pre-processing workers , tens of thousands of tons of deep processing workers , about 100,000 tons of cashew nut shell oil , earning about $ 1.8 billion .

 

Mr. Robert Saccoccio from Australia Cashew Association , said: " 92 % of cashew nuts to import into Australia from Vietnam . Why so? Previously, the market for the rest of India cashew nuts , but later obtains VN has Australian importers by the quality of the nuts you the world's best . " Mr. Robert also said that the DN VN also very flexible for continuous technological innovation at the request of the customer , something that many other exporting countries would lose .

 

" However, Australian consumers increasingly demanding and rigorous . Therefore, you should continue to develop credibility in ensuring the supply of quality and food hygiene . This is the key to Australian consumers always reassuring to use cashews from VN " - Mr Robert said .

 

At the 2014 treaties , the DN VN has signed many contracts of crude imports from Africa ; contract export of processed cashew products in the U.S., Europe and many other countries .

 

Mr. Nguyen Duc Thanh - Chairman Vinacas confirmed before Congress : "We are committed to providing the best products with the most reasonable price for customers around the globe to buy it ."

 

Similarly, he Rajkuma from RALS International Vietnam Company said: " I was surprised to see a number of processing plants that export of VN has equipped the camera XQ , eliminates up to 98 % foreign materials in products . This explains why VN has done revolution in this industry when 8 consecutive years ranked No. 1 export . Particularly in 2013, this sector has exported to the U.S. VN output increased by 30 % , this figure is more than impressive . "

 

He also recommended that Rajkuma , control issues and ensure consistent quality in the future should continue to be committed to the enterprise and perform well. " Because U.S. law is extremely strict . Just you violate FSH , the fine may make you bankrupt ! " - He warned .

 

Related to the expansion of cashew market in the near future , Mr. Joseph Lang - Kenko Joint Director ( NK ​​units leading edible nuts in Europe ) , said : " VN accounted for 40 % market share it of global exports and you still huge potential to penetrate the large European market . Currently nuts VN mainly to the ports of the Netherlands, 75 % of this volume will pass a number of European countries .

 

In the past year , only about 9 % of the total export volume of VN thing through the Netherlands, in particular when imported to the United States 28 % , China 20 % . Therefore, the European market was a lot of potential , especially Germany , England , France , Switzerland where income people as well as very high levels of consumer and cashews increasingly they prefer . "

 

How to increase market share here ? Mr. Joseph Lang said that the most important thing is DN VN done to ensure good quality of food hygiene and safety requirements of the European standard , American . This is the market willing to pay higher prices for food consumption , but they also have the quality requirements are extremely stringent and FSH .

 

" The good news is that we had to visit a number of VN plants and found that you better control of FSH . It explains why the last years of the VN cashew exports to Europe increased by 17 % / year . "
