14. MARKET FUNCTIONS
◦ Storage
Candlenut can be stored
in-shell for several
months with little
deterioration if dried to
10-12% moisture content.
However, once shelled,
the kernel must be kept
in a clean, dry place with
sealed floors. Kernel
should
not be stored longer than
one month, otherwise it
starts to blacken and rot.
◦ Processing
During the peak season,
candlenut fruits are
collected once or twice a
week from the ground,
after they have fallen
from the tree. The outer
flesh is removed
to expose the hard nut,
which is sun-dried for two
to four days. Boiling the
nut before shelling is
quicker than sun-drying
but gives the kernel an
undesirable yellow color.
◦ Transport
Most of our sources is
established at East
Indonesia, because of
that we prefer to chose a
high quantity order (min
5tn) to supply to.
Economic efficiency
preferences is a key
factor to develop a
highfully competitive
bussiness so we prefer to
chose a high quantities
order to supply because
that can give us a
significant efficiency on
cost of production.
