Who We Are

Pioneer Cashew Industries Limited

Pioneer Cashew Industries Limited is a legacy-driven cashew company with over five decades of excellence, founded on 16.09.1974 by Shri. C. Sivasubramanian at Kothawal Bazar, Chennai—the heart of the city’s wholesale trade. From its inception, the company was built on a commitment to delivering premium-quality cashew kernels to Chennai’s most discerning customers.

Within a short span, Pioneer Cashew Industries Limited emerged as one of the top three cashew suppliers in Chennai, catering to hotels, sweet stalls, and provision stores with consistent quality and reliable supply.

In 1989, the company expanded into the global export market, carrying the taste and quality of Indian cashews to international destinations and earning a strong reputation as a trusted exporter.

The second generation, led by Mr. S. Rajamanickam, strengthened operations through modern business practices and strategic growth. Today, the legacy continues under the leadership of the third generation, Mr. R. Shrivatshan, alongside Mr. Rajamanickam, driving the company in a 360-degree business model spanning B2C, B2B, wholesale, retail, online platforms, and global imports & exports.

At Pioneer Cashew Industries Limited, we remain committed to uncompromised quality, long-term partnerships, and sustainable growth, while staying true to the values that shaped our foundation.
