Tanzania is a famous coffee producer in the world. Due to the current low domestic consumption in Tanzania, the government is calling on people to drink at least twice as much coffee every day for the next five years to boost domestic sales.

Premers Kimayo, director of the quality and Promotion Department of the Tanzania Coffee Council, the national agency, told Reuters on the 14th: "because of the colonial history of Tanzania, today's social elites are learning from the British to drink tea." But I would like to appeal to all Tanzanians to drink more of our own coffee. "

The Tanzania Coffee Committee believes that at this stage, the proportion of 7% of coffee sold in Tanzania is too low and should be increased to 15% by 2014, so as to reduce the impact of international market demand on the Tanzanian coffee market.

Kimayo believes that Tanzanians should drink twice as much coffee every day for the next five years.
