Coffee markets of the future
How will coffee growing and the coffee price develop? Will the big players such
as Brazil, Colombia and Vietnam supply 89 % – 90 % of the total market in future,
while the smaller growing countries such as Ethiopia, Tanzania and Indonesia
concentrate exclusively on speciality and quality coffee? What will happen to
the medium-sized growing countries, e. g. in Central America – will they have a
market in future?
