Organic Macadamia Products for Trade & Food Industry
LIMBUA is a German-Kenyan producer and direct supplier of organic macadamia products — from whole nuts for snacking to nut ingredients for food manufacturing and the trade. The macadamias come from our own processing facilities and are shipped in bulk.
Our assortment includes macadamias for snacking, processing, nut butter, oil and coating. For use as ingredients in food manufacturing, we offer macadamias in whole, halves, pieces, as paste or oil. All products are certified and processed, packed and shipped by us. This ensures full traceability and consistent quality standards across all product styles.
Order quantities: LIMBUA supplies macadamia products in various bulk formats — from cartons (starting at 11.34 kg) to pallet shipments and full container loads, depending on the product type and your requirements. Shipping worldwide, including to the US, Europe and Asia.
Purchase
We purchase all macadamias directly from smallholder farmers around Mount Kenya. LIMBUA teams handle the sourcing on-site, ensuring transparent procurement and real-time, fair payment.
Our macadamias are grown in diverse agroforestry systems and certified organic (EU, USDA). LIMBUA is also Fair-for-Life certified for fair and ecological farming practices.
Processing
After purchasing, the nuts are processed in our own facilities at Mount Kenya. They are washed, gently dried, cracked and hand-sorted.
On request, we roast or pasteurize the nuts and can pack them directly in stand-up pouches.
All processing and packing is carried out by LIMBUA without intermediaries, ensuring consistent standards and full traceability.
Shipping
Our macadamia products are shipped worldwide: from our logistics center in Germany or directly from Kenya. Nuts are available in bulk from a carton but also by pallet or container — according to customer requirements.
Thanks to fully digital processes from purchasing to delivery, we can trace exactly which batch comes from which smallholder — ensuring traceable macadamia products from farm to finished goods.
Roasting
Macadamias can be roasted to intensify their flavour and create a crunchy texture.
Roasted nuts can be used as a snack or as an ingredient in bakery, confectionery and cereal products.
Grinding
Macadamias ground to a fine paste are used as a base for sauces or plant-based products.
Ground macadamia can also be used for confectionery, fillings or dairy-alternative applications. We offer our own macadamia butter.
Shredding
Shredded macadamias are ideal for baking and as toppings for cakes, pastries and desserts. They can be chopped into leaves or pieces and used roasted or caramelised.
These nut pieces add texture and flavour to cereals, ice cream and snack products.
COATING
Macadamias can be coated with chocolate, honey or savoury flavours to create finished snack products.
Multiple flavour variations are possible.
We also offer our own range of roasted and coated nuts.

Macadamia nuts can be used in a wide range of snack applications – from gourmet granola and energy bars to trail mixes or nut blends. Unsalted macadamias naturally contain beneficial nutrients and offer a mild, buttery flavour that works well in both sweet and savoury products.
They are low in carbohydrates and rich in unsaturated fats, making them a popular choice for health-focused snacks and premium product ranges.
You can order our raw macadamia products as whole, halved, flavoured or roasted nuts, depending on your requirements.
Macadamia Milk
Application Example for Manufacturers:
Macadamia milk is a plant-based drink made by blending macadamia nuts with water. It is used in cafés, bakeries and food manufacturing as a dairy-free ingredient — for beverages, ice cream, cream alternatives or ready-to-drink products. The taste is naturally creamy, mild and nutty, making it suitable for premium and vegan formulations.
For this application, LIMBUA supplies the raw material: Ingredient Style macadamia nuts or prepared nut paste in the desired consistency for further processing.
