Brief History:

Cashew nuts originate from the tropical cashew tree (Anacardium occidentale), which is native to Brazil. Indigenous communities first harvested and enjoyed cashews long before Portuguese explorers encountered the tree in the 1500s. The Portuguese later introduced cashews to India, Mozambique, and other parts of Africa, where the trees thrived in warm coastal climates. Over time, cashews became a valued global crop due to their rich taste, high nutritional value, and versatility. Today, countries like Vietnam, India, and parts of Africa—including Mozambique and Tanzania—are major producers, while cashews remain a beloved snack and ingredient around the world.
