Raw cashew nuts (RCN) from Ivory Coast, the world's largest producer. SGS certified quality.
Ivory Coast is the world's largest producer of raw cashew nuts (RCN). SITA & Compagnie selects and exports the finest harvests from the country's western and northern growing regions. Our cashews are SGS-inspected, stored in approved warehouses in Abidjan and shipped within agreed timelines.
SITA & Compagnie exports the raw cashew nut (RCN) still in its shell, as harvested. Once shelled by our processing clients, it becomes the cashew kernel sold worldwide — the finished product our raw nuts make possible.
