Why Vietnamese Cashews Need to Be Repositioned on the Global Market

🔍 From Raw Exports to High-Value Products

Vietnam has remained the world’s No.1 exporter of cashew kernels for over 18 years, holding more than 80% of global market share. However, most exports are still in raw or semi-processed form, leading to a mismatch between volume and export value. It’s time for Vietnam’s cashew industry to reposition its brand to increase global presence and long-term value.

📌 Why Repositioning Is Essential:

1️⃣ Low Value Despite High Export Volume

• Vietnamese cashews are mainly exported as raw materials. Importing countries then process and resell them at significantly higher prices.

2️⃣ Lack of National Brand Recognition

• Global consumers recognize Indian or African cashews, but “Vietnamese cashews” still lack strong brand identity.

3️⃣ Shifting Global Consumer Trends

• Markets now demand value-added, convenient, organic, and traceable products. Without change, Vietnam risks losing market share to countries with stronger branding strategies.

📌 Key Strategies for Repositioning Vietnamese Cashews:

✅ Develop value-added products: cashew butter, cashew milk, premium snacks, etc.

✅ Build a national cashew brand: “Vietnam Cashew” with global marketing campaigns.

✅ Integrate farming – processing – distribution into a closed value chain.

✅ Enhance quality standards, traceability, and international certifications.
