Premium Konkan Cashew Nuts
for Global Markets

Heritage-grown cashews from the Konkan coast, known for their natural sweetness, rich mouthfeel, and superior kernel quality.

Konkan-Origin Cashews with Distinctive Character

Birwadkar Foods Pvt. Ltd. sources premium cashew nuts predominantly from the Konkan belt of Maharashtra, including Sawantwadi, Sindhudurg, and Ratnagiri—regions historically known for producing high-flavour, naturally rich cashew kernels.

The coastal laterite soils, high humidity, sea influence, and traditional farming practices of Konkan impart a distinct taste profile and kernel texture that clearly differentiates these cashews from other Indian origins.

Konkan Cashew vs Other Cashews

Why Konkan Cashews Are Different?

Naturally sweeter taste with a rich, creamy mouthfeel
Higher oil content, enhancing flavour and roasting performance
Dense kernels with better bite and crunch
Grown under coastal climatic conditions, unlike inland or southern regions
Preferred for premium snacks, gourmet retail, and gifting segments

While southern India contributes to large volumes, Konkan cashews are recognized

for quality, not mass production, making them ideal for premium niche markets.
