CASHEW NUT SHELL OIL
Vietnamese Fresh Coconut – Vietnam is one of the world’s leading suppliers of coconut, thanks to its tropical climate, fertile soil, and year-round harvest. In recent years, fresh coconut from Vietnam has gained strong demand in international markets due to its natural taste, convenience, and versatility.
Fresh coconut refers to young coconuts harvested at the right maturity stage and processed so they can be consumed directly without further preparation. Unlike heavily processed beverages, fresh coconut offers:
- Naturally sweet coconut water
- Essential minerals and electrolytes
- A clean-label, preservative-free drinking experience
With consumers worldwide shifting toward healthier and more natural beverages, ready to drink fresh coconut has become a popular alternative to sugary soft drinks and artificial sports beverages.
Product Types from Vietnamese Fresh Coconut
Vietnam has a wide range of fresh coconut products tailored to different market requirements:

For food service operators, fresh coconut reduces preparation time while delivering a unique, authentic tropical experience to customers.
