The data was analyzed by tabular analysis, factor analysis, One Way ANOVA test and descriptive statistics. The result revealed that major factors influencing for cashew preference was reasonable price, taste and quality. The factor analysis result revealed that convenience factor, recommendation factor and quality factor has more influence on the consumers for the cashew preference.
