Coffee Trade Analysis - Growth, Trends, Covid-19 Impact, and Forecasts (2023 - 2028)

The coffee market is projected to register a CAGR of 2.5% during the forecast period, 2022-2027.

Despite the incredibly challenging working environment imposed by COVID-19 restrictions, consumers have still been able to access markets, largely owing to the resilience of coffee producers and supply chains. The impact of COVID-19 on coffee production is relatively minor. According to the European Union's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, lockdown and social distancing measures have caused a reduction in consumption. This particularly affects small coffee roasters and roasters that mainly supply hotels, restaurants, and cafés (HORECA).

Additionally, the coffee industry witnessed various issues from farms to markets like poor labor practices combined with unfair wages, deforestation, air pollution from roasting plants, and irregular pricing of coffee. According to a survey conducted by the Institute for Scientific Information on Coffee (ISIC), 68% of the respondents stated that they often consume coffee while working. This trend is leading to a huge demand for coffee in European countries like Germany, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom, and others, as consumers are becoming increasingly conscious of the quality of their coffee.
