  • The only way out of the industry

    Mar 13th, 2016

    <p></p><p>Solutions to revive the export sector which Vietnam this time, Nguyen Duc Thanh, Chairman of the Vietnam Cashew Association (Vinacas) said that the only error today quit ... just deep processing. <br></p> <p>According to Thanh, cashew exports this year will certainly be difficult for many reasons. There have been some coal enterprises that inventories of domestic cashew less this year, the seasonal amplitude due to prolonged drought phenomenon led to many factories only produce enough raw materials to the end of February and will seriously lacking in the March, 4, 5. Meanwhile, the import of raw cashew nuts also potential risks, especially to markets in Africa and the Ivory Coast after the contract was signed but partners refused delivery. <br></p> <p><b>Not only in material difficulties, in 2016, the United States will apply the Law Modernisation of food safety (FSMA) for cashew exports of Vietnam. This will affect how to Vietnam now, sir</b>?</p> <p>- It is true that the United States is tightening security issues of food hygiene (food safety). According to reports citing the president of the Association FDA recently at a conference in Dubai, the product of the Vietnam Cashew exports to the US to meet 34 errors, 2 errors higher than India. Since then, the US assessment of the quality and food safety Vietnam was just above average. While Brazil fairly, the Indian average. <br></p> <p>However, there is another story that the wholesalers, retailers, and importers of Americans say it's impossible not to buy Vietnam because ultimately now processing the output of India still lower Vietnam, about 1.2 million tons and is mainly consumed in the country, an average of one year exported only 100,000 tonnes range. Since then, they have launched a new law will be applied this year, mainly emphasizing Traceability factors. Americans also said that Vietnam's cashew nuts and many impurities and uneven colors. The reason they give is that we have too many small-scale processing plants, rose from 345 to 371 cashew processing factories in just 1 year led to mayhem in the processing of Vietnamese cashew nuts should Men are not eye-catching as that of Brazil. In Brazil with output reach 150,000 tonnes / year, but only about 8 companies specializing in processing cashew nuts. <br></p> <p>The United States launched the bill also aims to force manufacturers to more closely control the origin of cashews and food hygiene matters.<b> <br></b></p> <p><b>So, Vietnamese enterprises will have to deal happen</b>?</p> <p>- Act FSMA need to understand in a more positive meaning. I suppose, FSMA for cashews is a good solution for improving quality and food hygiene and safety of the Vietnam Cashew. Before we issued Circular 75/2009 / TT-BNN of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and Rural Development on ensuring food hygiene and safety regulations for the processing facilities, but when Vinacas and the examination discovered a lot processing enterprises substandard. The important thing is now slowly overcome and after each test is finished to finish it where it does not solve the problem! And when the survey team, evaluation of partners, the United States to almost all businesses are trying to reach the target they offer. For example: Last year, a delegation of experts from the United States to Vietnam to assess 15 cashew processing enterprises are all achieved. <br></p> <p>That's now how to deal with US legislation, long-term solutions to export stability and development which according to him is what? <br></p> <p>- The best solution to help Vietnam cashew development exist and that we have to shift from purchasing cheap competition to compete in terms of quality and cost. In fact, many enterprises in Vietnam have also realized this and they are very clear navigation steps. Currently, businesses that Vietnam and cheap high prices are skewed to 0.5 USD / 1 kg (11,000 VND / 1kg). It is noteworthy that, until now, Vietnam has only 22 processing enterprises ISO, HACCP, while Vietnam has 371 clue to enterprises involved in the processing.</p> <p>Vietnam only has a single door is to increase deep processing. Please also share more is, in a conference at the end of 2015 Dubai, a business says: In 2015, his own businesses of Vietnam purchased 150 containers (types 20 tons / 1container) for sale in China Nations that Vinacas did not know what information. Business representatives also shared the deep processing of cashew nuts salted cashew ie type sold shell is very strong in China. <br></p> <p><b>Sir, Vietnam has participated in several FTAs and the TPP, which export markets will have to change anything, sir</b>? <br></p> <p>- Fortunately for Vietnam is among 12 countries participating in the TPP agreement, both the 12 countries are importing cashew market. The partners in the US, said that FTA Vietnam benefiting nearly 0,7USD / 1kg and more importantly making competitiveness between Vietnam cashew nuts and India closer.</p><p>However, in the near future, Vietnam domestic market is not just a playground for local businesses, but it does some major corporations in Australia, Thailand, South Korea is also investing in institutional cooperation deep processing of cashew. Therefore, if you do not promote deep processing surely the lesson like that will happen. <br></p> <p>Sincerely thank him!<br></p><p></p>
