Chinese coffee machinery enters Africa to grow coffee beans.

Abstract: the development of African coffee market provides a new platform for China's food machinery industry. Pang Lu, Chinese Economic and Commercial Counsellor in the Republic of C ô te d'Ivoire, said: "this is a rare opportunity for China's food machinery export."

Among the products called "black gold" by Africans, in addition to oil, there is also coffee.

Coffee is the main cash crop in Angola, the primary export of Burundi and the largest foreign exchange earning industry in Kenya in the past. Ethiopia is known as the "hometown of coffee"; C ô te d'Ivoire occupies an important position in the world in coffee production; Uganda is famous for its production per unit area in Africa.

However, due to the lack of sufficient processing capacity, a large part of African coffee can only rely on the demand of developed countries to export raw materials passively. Subject to fluctuations in the international raw material market prices, it means that the economic lifeline is in the hands of others.

There is such an example: a country with processing capacity imports $5 million of coffee beans, and the proceeds from processing are $70 million, a 14-fold increase.

In the face of such huge benefits, African coffee producers have expressed their determination to be unwilling to do wedding clothes for others. Zhengfu of C ô te d'Ivoire, for example, proposes that the vast majority of Ivorian coffee will be processed locally after 2015, with only 510% of raw materials being exported.

Indian merchants have been the first to smell business opportunities. India's Tata Coffee, Asia's largest bean grower, has also taken a fancy to Africa, a fertile land for coffee production. Two years ago, the company announced that it would invest about $27.7 million to build an instant coffee factory in Uganda in an attempt to turn Uganda into the company's global coffee export hub to meet growing global demand.

This also seems to provide a new platform for China's food machinery industry. Pang Lu, China's Economic and Commercial Counsellor in the Republic of C ô te d'Ivoire, said: "this is a rare opportunity for China's food machinery export." He explained that the machinery manufacturing industry in C ô te d'Ivoire is very weak and that machinery and equipment are basically imported from Western countries. However, the performance of machinery and equipment in China is not inferior to that in the West, but the price is competitive. In particular, the export of food machinery has increased year by year.

China has a more detailed classification of food processing machinery, including coffee processing equipment, roasting equipment, drying equipment, transportation equipment, sterilization equipment and so on. In the later stage, it will also involve packaging machinery such as sealing machinery, packing machinery and so on. Liu Min, director of the marketing department of Changzhou Xinyi equipment Co., Ltd., told reporters that the company mainly produces baking and drying equipment, which is mostly exported to Southeast Asian countries, but also has a small amount of exports to Russia and the Middle East, but its business to Africa is still blank. At present, it is still not common for many food processing machinery enterprises to export to Africa.

It takes a process from coffee fruit to coffee powder. First of all, after the coffee fruit is picked, it needs to be exposed to the sun for about two weeks, and then manual screening is carried out. Workers will screen out coffee beans that are brown, cyan, moth and foul-smelling, so that the coffee will not have a sour smell, followed by baking, which is usually roasted at 350 degrees for an hour and a half, then placed indoors to dissipate heat. The coffee beans can then be packaged or ground into coffee powder for sale.

Most of the roasted coffee is commercialized on a large scale, and of course, a small part of the roasted coffee comes from home production, so that the coffee can remain fresh and flavor to a greater extent.

Du Yingnan is the first Chinese teacher at the language training Institute of the Ministry of Education of Mozambique. When it comes to coffee, she can be said to be an expert. "all coffee beans, whether ground or not, begin to decline after baking. So if you want to drink the freshest coffee, be sure to drink coffee brewed within an hour after baking." This makes household roasters essential. "my family uses a hot air roaster, which roasts coffee beans by rolling them in hot air." Like du Yingnan, Wei Lin is a coffee enthusiast. "there is only a small handful of raw coffee beans at a time, which is automatically controlled from baking to cooling, and it is easy to use. The roaster was bought in the eastern suburbs of Beijing a year ago, and the price that year was about 1700 yuan. "

With the development of Chinese economy and the deepening of Africans' understanding of China, Africans' concept of Chinese products is also gradually changing, and the demand for Chinese machinery products is also increasing.
