According to Tran Van Hiep, Vice chairman of VCA, the Russia-Ukraine conflict is one of the major factors in the decline in exports. Russia was the 14th largest importer of Vietnamese cashews before the conflict cut off Russia from the SWIFT system, making it difficult for Vietnamese exporters to receive payments.

Secondly, increased inflation in the US and EU is another factor. As a result of higher inflation, consumers are forced to spend less on non-essential items like cashew nuts. Vietnamese cashew demand accordingly decreased. Moreover, China adheres to its zero-COVID policy, preventing the importation of Vietnamese nuts, he added.
