W180 Cashew Specifications & Quality Parameters
Because only approximately 2% to 3% of any raw cashew nut harvest reaches the massive proportions required for the W180 grade, this product commands the highest market value. Every kernel is hand-inspected and laser-sorted at our Binh Phuoc facility to guarantee unbroken whole kernels, clean curved contours, and zero surface blemishes.
Why Buyers Pay a Premium for W180
In high-end consumer retail, visual perception drives price premiums. W180 cashew nuts dwarf standard commercial cashews (W320), creating an immediate sense of opulence in clear-window pouches, glass jars, and corporate gift baskets. They are particularly coveted in the Middle East (Dubai, Saudi Arabia), China, Europe, and the luxury nut trade across North America.
