Mm, good cashews - and they're from Africa? While India and Brazil are the sources of almost all of the processed, finished cashew nuts eaten around the world, nearly 1/3 of cashews are actually grown in Africa. What happens is that the African nuts are exported in raw form, processed in India, and then re-exported, after processing, to consuming countries. While the raw nuts are worth
very little (US50¢ per kilo in West Africa in 2004), the processed
nuts (known as kernels) are sold for at least US$8.50 per kilo
in the USA and other consuming countries, often much more. (It takes
4-5 kg of raw nuts to make a kg of kernels.) By exporting raw nuts,
African producing countries give up a significant income generation
opportunity.Which is a shame given that certain areas, like Guinea-Bissau, southern Senegal, and the Gambia produce some of the best quality nuts anywhere. The objective of this program is to turn Senegal and other African countries gradually into exporters of top-quality finished kernels that meet the highest quality standards. It began in 2001 with support from USAID and technical leadership from EnterpriseWorks Worldwide , an international non-governmental organization working in enterprise development. Sister programs backed by the same team are operating in Guinea-Bissau (the world's 5th producer of raw cashew nuts), Guinea-Conakry, and Benin. Senegalese cashews processed through this program began hitting the local market in 2002, and were first exported to the Gambia in 2003. Nuts from our Guinea-Bissau program are commercially available in Cape Verde, Senegal, Mali, the Gambia, and Guinea-Conakry, and large quantities have also gone to the United States, the Netherlands, and Portugal. Wider regional and international export links are being built for the near future. The program started as part of an innovative initiative sponsored by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), designed to create opportunitiy in Senegal's Casamance region (separated from the rest of Senegal by the Gambia), a region that had been troubled by civil insecurity for nearly 20 years. USAID's objective was to provide incentives to the development of a peaceful, productive local economy in the wake of the long conflict. As of late 2003 the cashew program is joined with USAID-Senegal 's other private sector development programs. EnterpriseWorks is a Private Voluntary Organization, created in 1978 as Appropriate Technology International (ATI), and working in 15 countries around the world. Our special focus is enterprise development, job creation, and income generation in the private sector in countries where employment opportunities are sorely needed. EnterpriseWorks has been present in Senegal since 1990, working with low-cost irrigation technologies, conservation cookstoves, and village-based cooking oil extraction enterprises. EnterpriseWorks also has or has recently had programs in Guinea-Bissau , Mali , Burkina Faso , Côte d’Ivoire , Ghana , Benin , Niger , Zimbabwe , Tanzania , Uganda , India , Nepal , the Philippines , El Salvador , and Haiti . |
