During the World Cashew Conference (WCC 2026) in Dubai, PSL Machinery’s global expert team was invited to participate in a private high-level meeting hosted by the Government of Côte d’Ivoire. The closed-door session focused on the strategic direction of the country’s cashew industry and the transition from raw cashew nut exports toward localized, value-added processing.

As Côte d’Ivoire continues to strengthen its position as the world’s leading producer of raw cashew nuts, the discussion emphasized the importance of developing industrial-scale processing capacity within the country. The dialogue provided an opportunity for us to present practical solutions and technical perspectives on advancing cashew processing in Côte d’Ivoire, with particular attention to automation, efficiency optimization, and sustainable engineering.

The meeting centered on bridging the gap between primary production and modern processing infrastructure. Our experts outlined how integrated processing lines and A-to-Z factory solutions can support cashew value retention within Côte d’Ivoire, enhance operational efficiency, and contribute to a more resilient and competitive domestic cashew sector.

This engagement reflects our ongoing commitment to supporting governments and institutional stakeholders seeking to industrialize agricultural value chains. Rather than focusing on theoretical collaboration, the discussion addressed the practical implementation of complete factory solutions tailored to local climatic, logistical, and operational conditions.
Following the dialogue in Dubai, we remain committed to translating shared objectives into long-term, technically grounded cooperation. Through advanced machinery, engineering expertise, and comprehensive technical support, PSL Machinery will continue to contribute to the development of sustainable, high-performance cashew processing lines worldwide.
