China's coffee bean export policy-China's coffee bean import policy

Yunnan coffee, China

China is expected to occupy a place next to the two coffee giants, Brazil and Colombia. The two countries control more than 50 per cent of the world's coffee production with production of 51.2 million and 12.5 million bags, respectively. Vietnam controls the production of Robusta, another coffee with a less strong flavor (29.3 million bags).

To achieve this goal, China will double its world production in the next five years, according to a head of Volcaf é, a Swiss coffee maker active in the Chinese market.

However, many experts say that China's coffee industry still has a long way to go to rival the product quality of Latin America and occupy a place on the world coffee supply map. Wall Coffee is convinced that "Chinese coffee is relatively junior in the world coffee pattern, but the improvement of its quality will make it more and more accepted by coffee retailers." It added: "these new sources will take several years to gain a corresponding status." Our goal is to show the world China's efforts and transform it from a local producer into a global supplier. "

In Yunnan, some farmers have seen huge benefits from producing the world's most expensive coffee, Kopi Luwak. Its uniqueness lies in that it is "processed" from the stomach of a musk cat that looks like a stone marten. And its price is about 500 euros / kg to 750 euros / kg.

Every year, 5 million to 6 million tons of fresh coffee beans are produced, most of which take a long journey, starting from the plantations, being carried on animals, and then by land, water, rail, and until today's aviation system reaches all parts of the world.

As we have seen, until coffee beans are ready to be sold or exported, they are stored and transported in the form of "parchment coffee beans" (that is, endocarp) (although this increases weight and increases the cost of storage and transportation). And almost all new coffee beans are packed in bags of crude fibers made of jute and Bordeaux, each containing about 60 kilograms. In Hawaii, bags that can hold 45kg are commonly used; in Colombia, 70kg bags are more popular; in Puerto Rico, 90kg bags are sometimes used.
