The coffee market regulatory body in Ethiopia is the Ethiopian Coffee and Tea products Administration. There are two auction centers in the country, one in the capital Addis Ababa (Addis Ababa) and the other in Dire Dawa in eastern Ethiopia. Coffee growers wash fresh fruits or take them to private coffee processing plants or cooperative coffee washing stations. Washed and dried coffee beans are transported to a central store in Addis Ababa, the capital, where they are fully inspected and soaked, rated according to poor quality and auctioned. Coffee from state-owned farms has to follow the same procedure after being processed by the farm. Buyers who participate in the auction will carefully observe the coffee beans and their soaking proof before bidding. The bidding takes the form of buyers shouting out the list price. Ethiopia exports 80% of the natural or sun-cured coffee beans and 15% of the wet-processed coffee beans every year. Ethiopia has about 2.5% of the global coffee market. Ethiopia's coffee is exported to all parts of the world, and Germany, Japan, Saudi Arabia and the United States are Ethiopia's four major coffee exporters. On average, Ethiopia exports about 109000 tons of coffee (equivalent to 1.8 million bags of 60 kg coffee) to all parts of the world each year.

Ethiopian coffee beans grow in close to the natural environment, after years of planting under the same growth conditions, Ethiopian coffee beans have gradually adapted to the environment here. More than 60% of coffee beans are grown in forests or semi-forests.

Large-scale coffee-growing villages account for about 35% of the country's total coffee production. These coffee farms, which use a multi-tier coffee planting system, are carefully cared for. Coffee farmers do not use chemical fertilizers, but use fallen leaves and animal and plant debris to increase soil nutrition. In addition to coffee, farmers also frequently grow non-coffee crops. Even manor coffee (coffee produced by state-owned farms), which accounts for 5% of the country's total coffee production, shows the characteristics of forest coffee production.

Located in the most advantaged natural conditions, Ethiopia produces unique high-quality coffee every year. Ethiopia's coffee growing cycle brings the joy of harvest to the country every year. Beautiful white coffee flowers will bloom and bear fruit every year from March to April. Only the reddest and ripe fruits are selected as coffee ingredients between September and about December. The export of new coffee starts in November or December every year.

Ethiopians have a penchant for coffee, with an annual per capita coffee consumption of 3 kg. Ethiopia ranks first in terms of coffee consumption in Africa and, if compared with European countries, can also rank among the top-middle coffee consuming countries in Europe.

Now, Ethiopia produces coffee not only for drinking, but also for coffee lovers around the world to enjoy it better. With the continuous improvement of the quality and production efficiency of the coffee industry, Ethiopia is now more than ever able to provide high-quality coffee to even the most picky and discriminating customers. Ethiopia hopes that not only the coffee consumers in the world but also the Chinese people can share this precious wealth of Ethiopia. Because Chinese people have gradually become "experts" in appreciating the quality of coffee.
