Our Process

From Tree to Taste — Precisely

We keep things simple and strict: careful grading, gentle roasting, fast packing, and quality checks at each step. That’s how we lock in sweetness, crunch, and peace of mind.

Select & Grade

We work directly with growers in Bình Phước and the Central Highlands. Lots are pre-screened for size, uniformity, and defect ratio. We prioritise whole kernels for cashews (e.g., A180 ONLY) and uniform in-shell sizing for macadamias.

  • Uniform size and shape — with very few broken pieces.
  • Perfectly dried for lasting crunch and freshness.
  • Every batch fully traceable and certified for EU standards.

Gentle Roast

Small-batch, even heat. We develop curves that bring out natural sweetness without scorching. NO FRYING. NO OIL Coating. Just clean, controlled roasting and a light salting where appropriate.

  • Each batch roasted to the perfect golden tone — never overdone.
  • Rested after roasting for balanced, full flavour.
  • Just a touch of salt — enough to enhance, never overpower.

Fast Pack

Packed swiftly after roasting in our signature low-ink, high-barrier pouches that preserve aroma, texture, and freshness — each marked with a clear lot code for traceability.

  • Sealed soon after roasting to preserve aroma and natural crunch.
  • Beautifully simple packaging — minimal ink, maximum refinement.
  • Each batch clearly coded and rotated for guaranteed freshness.

Certified Quality & Safety

All lots are accompanied by official Vietnamese certificates verifying safety and quality before export. Our suppliers operate under ISO 9001:2015 and HACCP food-safety systems, with each shipment backed by analytical and phytosanitary reports for EU import.

  • ISO 9001:2015 — Quality Management System
  • HACCP — Food Safety Certification
  • Phytosanitary Certificate — Export health clearance
  • Analytical Report — Aflatoxin, moisture, and other key quality parameters

What Sets VietnamPrime Apart

Not all nuts are created equal. Most nuts found in supermarkets or open markets are roasted in large industrial batches, often with added oils to speed up production. By the time they reach the shelf, they’ve often travelled and stored for months — losing much of their natural aroma and crunch.

At VietnamPrime, we work directly with farms in Bình Phước, Vietnam’s cashew heartland, selecting only the highest grades — including A180, known for their exceptional size, buttery texture, and perfect shape. Each lot is carefully dried, hand-sorted, and gently wood-roasted without oil, preserving the nuts’ natural sweetness and clean, crisp texture.

We keep oxygen and time to a minimum between roast and pack, sealing freshness in high-barrier pouches. The result: nuts that taste freshly roasted, naturally rich, and never greasy or over-salted.

It’s the difference you can taste — craftsmanship and freshness over mass production.

Cashew Size Grades — Quick Guide

The letter **W** means White Whole. The number is kernels per pound — so a **smaller number means a bigger nut**.
