In 1878, the British landed coffee in Africa and set up a coffee plantation in Kenya in the 19th century, when Ethiopian coffee drinks were imported to Kenya through southern Yemen. But it was not until the beginning of the 20th century that the bourbon coffee tree was saint. The Austin Mission (St.AustinMission) was introduced.

Coffee producing areas in Kenya:

Coffee from Kenya (Kenya) is mostly grown at an altitude of 1500 Murray 2100 meters and is harvested twice a year. Kenyan coffee is grown by small farmers. Kenyan coffee is produced near Mount Kenya in central Kenya and is sometimes guaranteed after the capital, Nairobi. Kenya AA (Kenya AA) is produced on the 17000-foot hillside of Mount Kenya near Nairobi, the capital of Kenya. Kenya AA is the largest coffee bean in the country, followed by An and B again. Its unique bitterness and wine taste are most praised by people. Located in Kenya below the equator of East Africa, the coffee beans planted are high-quality Arabica seeds. The size of beans is medium-large, very thick and tasty, and moderate acidity.

The Kenyan coffee market:

The Kenyan government takes the coffee industry very seriously, where it is illegal to cut down or destroy coffee trees. Kenyan coffee buyers are world-class high-quality coffee buyers, and no other country can grow, produce and sell coffee on a continuous basis like Kenya. All coffee beans are first acquired by the Kenya Coffee Commission (CoffeeBoardofKenya, CBK), where they are identified, graded, and then sold at weekly auctions, where they are no longer graded. The Kenya Coffee Commission only acts as an agent to collect coffee samples and distribute them to buyers so that they can determine the price and quality. The auction in Nairobi is for private exporters, and the Kenya Coffee Commission pays growers a price below the market price.

However, due to the decline in global coffee prices, the auction price of coffee in Kenya fell 19.74 percent in October 2018 from a year earlier, to an average price of about $200 per 50 kilograms of coffee, the lowest in 12 years, according to the National Daily. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) said the decline in global coffee prices was mainly due to an increase in supply, especially in countries such as Brazil and Vietnam, which continued to expand production, while demand-side demand, mainly in developed countries, was declining.
