However, the current trend toward online shopping for at-home consumption is forcing retailers, roasters, and consumers to adapt to this new reality. Therefore, this factor is expected to increase the consumption of coffee around the world. For instance, companies such as Nestlé SA had reported strong retail demand for food and beverage products globally, achieving 4.4% organic group sales growth in the first quarter of 2020. Coffee sales were particularly robust as consumers stockpiled essential items during the pandemic.

The market is driven by multiple factors, a few being increasing demand for certified coffee products, acceptance of single-serve coffee brew systems by the consumers, and constant innovation lead by top players in the coffee market. In developed economies, some consumers are expected to switch from instant coffee to more premium options for reasons of quality and flavor. Instant coffee was once considered a high-end product but began to lose its base of younger consumers, which is changing the market dynamics.

Depending on coffee production, countries, like Brazil and Vietnam accounts for the highest production of coffee, in terms of volume, owing to suitable coffee growing conditions. With the production of 3.6 billion metric ton of green coffee, Brazil is the largest producer globally, followed by Vietnam, Colombia, Indonesia, and Ethiopia.
