This will be the 3rd time Tanzania will be hosting the Annual Cashew Conference and Expo, previously hosting the 2019 and 2008 editions.

There will be a series of presentations, thematic forum discussions, workshops, and information sessions featuring seasoned cashew experts, analysts, industry players, and development partners on important issues of sustainability in the cashew industry.

There will also be business-to-business meetings organized and facilitated by the ACA to help with building and sustaining partnerships and an industry exhibition of cashew products, innovations, and technologies.

The ACA was established in 2006 as an association of African and international businesses with an interest in promoting a globally competitive African cashew industry.

Today, nearly 130 member companies work under the ACA banner and represent all aspects of the cashew value chain, including producers, processors, traders, and international buyers.
