In addition to the increase in coffee consumption, China's coffee bean exports have also benefited a lot from "Belt and Road Initiative". Not only through the China-Europe train (Chongqing) coffee international freight train, the cumulative transport of more than 400 containers, the total weight of more than 4,000 tons. Previously restricted by sales in Laos, Vietnam, Myanmar and other places, now through "Belt and Road Initiative", the export volume of Chinese coffee beans has increased.

Data from the Chongqing Quarantine Bureau pointed out that since July 2015, coffee international freight trains have transported roasted coffee beans and instant coffee powder in more than 4000 containers and more than 4000 tons, worth nearly 350 million yuan (RMB, the same below). In addition, the China-Europe train also allowed the spot transaction volume of Chongqing Coffee Trading Center to exceed 12 billion yuan. Yunnan, the main producing area of Chinese coffee beans, has made "Chinese beans" international through the China-Europe train and Belt and Road Initiative.

The unique geographical environment of Yunnan makes coffee beans have the characteristics of "strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, slightly sour" and so on. The products are favored by more than 20 countries and regions, such as Europe, America and Japan, but they are limited by expensive transaction and logistics costs. Yunnan coffee industry has a meagre profit.

Nowadays, "Belt and Road Initiative" and "China-Europe train" not only make overseas goods easier to see in China, but also gradually increase the export volume of Yunnan coffee beans. According to the Yunnan Quarantine Bureau, Yunnan exported nearly 100000 tons of coffee and related products in 2016, with a value of about 472 million US dollars.

Chinese brand Hougu Coffee said, "early goods, mostly by sea, from placing an order to the export of coffee beans, and then to customer receipt and payment, the whole process may take more than three months." Today, it takes only 14 days for coffee beans to get to Europe through the China-Europe train, which not only saves 2 and 3 of the time, but is also cheaper than airfreight by 4 and 5. "

"Belt and Road Initiative drives the export of coffee beans! Originally, because of the underdeveloped traffic in Laos, Vietnam, Myanmar and other places, the export pipeline of coffee beans was blocked, which hindered the development of the coffee industry. " Shi Xiaoqing, head of Yunzhong Coffee Project of China Jiangsu International Economic and technological Cooperation Group Co., Ltd., said that now the facilities of "Belt and Road Initiative" are connected, so that after the railway transportation is smooth, the coffee beans can be shipped directly.
