Sao Paulo (Reuters)-Brazil is preparing to export a record nearly 40 million bags per 60kg of coffee this season, including raw and commercial beans, a sharp increase from the previous cycle after a bumper harvest in 2018, the group Ccafe said in a statement on Wednesday.

According to forecasts, exports of raw coffee beans could start in July this year and end in June next year, reaching 3, 6.3 million to 3, 6.6 million bags, c é f é said in a subsequent statement.

"everything shows that if we continue to move forward at the current rate, we should export nearly 40 0 bags of coffee crops this year (total exports), which will be a historical record," said Nelson Cavalehai, president of Sishiv.
