Sale of cashew nuts


Imagem relacionadaThe process of selling cashew nuts in Mozambique will be divided into phases, the first being reserved for domestic traders, the director of the Cashew Development Institute (INCAJU) recently said in Nampula.
Ilídio Bande, who was speaking at the second meeting of the Cashew Committee, which brings together all actors in the value chain of this cash crop, added that foreign traders will only be able to participate in the sales and marketing process in the second and third stages.The president of Incaju, quoted by the AIM news agency, said that these changes are part of a new regulation that “soon” will provide a framework for the sale and remaining value chain of cashew nuts in Mozambique.Bande also said his institute is proposing the definition of the reference price to ensure that both producers and the industry make a profit.
