💰 Understanding Cashew Pricing Structure
Cashew prices in Vietnam depend on several key factors:
• kernel grade (WW180, WW240, WW320)
• processing cost and labor
• raw cashew input price (Africa origin)
• order volume
• packaging type (bulk vs retail)
General rule:
• Larger kernels → higher price
• Higher volume → better pricing
• OEM packaging → added cost but higher value
WW320 remains the most popular grade due to balance between price and quality, while WW180 targets premium segments.
📦 MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity)
MOQ varies depending on product type:
Bulk Cashew Kernels
• Standard MOQ: 1 container (approx. 15–19 tons)
• Packaging: vacuum bag / carton / tin
OEM / Private Label
• MOQ: flexible (depends on packaging)
• usually from 2,000 – 5,000 units
SVC supports both full container load (FCL) and customized OEM production, allowing buyers to scale based on market needs.
