During a visit by the President of Guinea-Bissau to Vietnam, discussions were held to boost cashew trade between the two countries. Guinea-Bissau is a major supplier of raw cashews to Vietnam, but faces challenges such as lack of containers and quality issues. The Vietnamese cashew industry is interested in Guinea-Bissau's cashews, but transactions are hindered by these challenges and the lack of bank relations between the two countries. The Guinea-Bissau government is taking steps to address these issues, including simplifying the transaction process and considering investing in upgrading the port. The parties will also report to their governments and discuss resolving the bank transaction issue.
