To avoid Vietnam’s Tet holiday which occurs during W4 2023, Tanzanian exporters are advised to carry out RCN (Raw Cashew Nut) shipments as early as late October to mid November. During the Tet holiday Vietnamese factories take 2-3 weeks off causing logistics issues as importers try to avoid detention and demurrage charges which occur as a result of a slowdown in operations due to the holiday.
