Welcome to Burkina Cajou

Building a future where every cashew creates opportunity.

Every year, Burkina Faso produces over 200,000 tons of raw cashew nuts  yet less than 10% is processed locally. This paradox deprives the country of significant income, thousands of jobs, and major opportunities for growth.


Burkina Cajou was created to change this reality. We are a Burkinabè agro-industrial company dedicated to the full transformation of cashew nuts. Through a modern, certified processing facility, our goal is to keep value within the country, strengthen national competitiveness, and build a sustainable cashew industry that empowers farmers, youth, and women.


Our project is more than a business, it’s a national mission. It represents a concrete response to a key development challenge, a driver of industrialization, and a direct contribution to the National Development Strategy, which prioritizes local transformation as a pathway to inclusive growth.

Our mission is to transform the richness of cashew into lasting value for Burkina Faso. We ensure that every nut harvested by our producers becomes a source of employment, income, and national pride.


Through our modern processing facility, we produce premium white cashew kernels that meet international standards. Each product leaving our factory reflects Burkina Faso’s ability to industrialize its resources and position itself as a reliable and competitive player in the global market.


But our mission goes beyond economics. It includes training, inclusion, and empowerment. Burkina Cajou embodies the belief that an industry can both create value for investors and open new opportunities for an entire nation.

  • Value creation

To make Burkina Faso a regional leader in cashew processing and a global reference for sustainable agro-industry.


We envision a nation where the value of every cashew stays in the country creating jobs, empowering communities, and driving inclusive growth.


Through innovation, excellence, and local transformation, Burkina Cajou strives to build a future where Burkina Faso’s natural wealth becomes a symbol of industrial pride and economic independence.
