Define the right supply

What should buyers specify?

Use these points to frame an enquiry. They are questions for your specific lot, not claims that a current lot or test result has been verified.

01

Common forms to specify

  • Raw in-shell nuts for buyer-specified processing.
  • Shelled and peeled kernels.
  • Whole kernels or broken styles such as butts, splits and pieces.
02

Buyer requirements

  • Specify in-shell or shelled form and the required kernel style.
  • Confirm size/count terminology, intended use and any further processing.
  • Request lot origin, identification, pack marking and traceability information.
  • Agree a representative sample and written tolerances before contracting.
03

Quality checks to agree

  • Inspect a representative sample for cleanliness, visible foreign matter, pests, mould, rancid odour and external moisture.
  • Check the requested style, size/count where applicable, uniformity and packaging.
  • Agree criteria for breakage, discoloration, adhering testa, shell fragments, spots and pest damage.
  • For in-shell nuts, discuss dryness and a safe, controlled shelling plan.

Pack, protect & present

Handling shaped around the order.

Protect kernels from moisture, heat, pests and physical damage.

For shelled kernels, agree clean, moisture-protective packaging. Keep packs identified through transport, and settle storage temperature, humidity and any oxygen-control needs per order. Raw in-shell processing requires suitable precautions because shell liquid can cause dermatitis.

Product-specific careAgree the packaging and storage plan with the buyer for the specific cashew form and route.

Before a quote is accepted

Any reviewed report should correspond to the identified sample or supply lot and the agreed testing scope.
