Cashew apple, the fleshy fruit attached to the cashew nut, is gaining commercial value in the food and beverage industry, particularly in juices, alcoholic beverages, and fermented products. Rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, and dietary fiber, it is now processed into fresh and packaged juices sold in India, Brazil, and Mozambique by companies like Olam and Agrinut. The juice blends well with pineapple, mango, and passion fruit, increasing its appeal in tropical juice sectors.
Additionally, In the alcoholic beverage sector, the cashew apple is used to make wine and spirits, such as "Cajuína" in Brazil, "Cashew Feni" in Goa, India, and "Suma" in Guinea-Bissau. The fruit’s natural sugars and fermentation properties make it an excellent raw material for producing fruit-based alcoholic drinks, attracting interest from small-scale distillers and commercial breweries.
Raw nut exports have long dominated Tanzania’s cashew industry, but recent government interventions aim to boost local processing and empower smallholder farmers. The Tanzania Agricultural Development Bank (TADB) has launched specialized loan schemes for cashew farmers, allowing them to invest in modern processing units rather than selling raw nuts at lower prices. Additionally, the Cashew Board of Tanzania (CBT) has been working to establish farmer cooperatives, giving growers greater control over pricing and supply chain negotiations. With these efforts, Tanzania gradually shifts from a bulk exporter to a high-value cashew processor, ensuring higher earnings for local producers.
