Buyer behavior Default of contract Late collection of raw cashew nuts Late payments Other Risks Lack of knowledge of buyer’s requirements Bushfires Land tenure issues (land loss) Producer level risks suggest processors are losing out due to own behavior and late availability of working capital.

Key Operational Risks Lack of Management skills Low cost competitiveness High raw material prices High energy costs Other Risks Working Capital failure Failure to build supply chains Processor level Risks were mainly operational in nature and relate to their ability to remain cost competitive.

Turning Production growth into value addition Cashew Processing entrepreneurs need investors / Investors need processors who think business development not just trading . Cashew processors need finance / Financial institutions need processors with good business plans, secure supply chains , management systems and markets Cashew processors need customers / Buyers need suppliers who will develop relationships , are competitive, meet their quality and other requirements , develop their process and honour their contracts. Processors need developed supply chains./ Growers need buyers who pay market prices and develop relationships This is about the type of relationships we choose to develop.
