Top Coffee Producing Countries
Coffee is produced in more than 60 countries of which three account for more than half of the world's production:
Brazil, Vietnam and Colombia.
Arabica coffee, the fine-flavoured, aromatic type makes up 60-65% of the total production and usually fetches the highest prices.
The other variety, robusta, is easier to produce and is more resistant to disease. Around 75% of all coffee is exported.
Only Brazil and Ethiopia enjoy high domestic consumption.
The world's annual production is currently around 115 million 60-kg bags or 7 million tonnes. It takes 420,000 containers (20 ft.) to carry this much coffee. Placed in a row these would stretch over more than 2,500 km.
