Connecting global markets to local opportunities.
Lhacienda Corp is a West African agro-industrial group in development, with a European commercial base. We are building the capacity to buy, process and ship cashew — and to invest in the industry that has to exist around it.
Why process at origin
Côte d’Ivoire is the world’s largest producer of raw cashew, yet most of the crop leaves the country unshelled — and with it the margin, the jobs and the know-how. Lhacienda Corp exists to keep that step at home: a processing plant in Bondoukou, in the middle of the growing region, and a European hub that puts the finished kernel within days of the customer.
It is a harder way to build a cashew business than trading raw nuts. It is also the only version worth building, because the value it creates cannot be relocated.

Three commitments we can be held to.
Traceability by default
Every lot will be registered at the buying station and keep its cooperative of origin, harvest window and outturn through processing and shipping. The system is being built before the first tonne moves, not after.
One operator, end to end
We do not intend to hand the goods to a chain of brokers. The same company answers for the kernel in Bondoukou and for the pallet in Zaragoza.
We publish what is true
No certification appears on this site before it is issued. No volume appears before it has shipped. Targets are labelled as targets.
