The industry is subdivided to such a situation that the United States launches special water for brewing coffee.
Founder Frank Manale previously worked as an environmental consultant and majored in water-related issues: pollution assessment and remediation of soil and groundwater. Another startup member is Ralph Henn, who has 14 years of experience at Community Coffee, a coffee company in Louisiana.
They began research and development of Aquiem water at the University of Louisiana six years ago, and the "coffee water" went on sale in January this year. Aquiem water is currently sold in single boxes in 18 supermarkets in Louisiana. Aquiem also plans to enter a larger supermarket chain, which is in talks with supermarkets such as Whole Foods. Aquiem is also available on its website. They may enter Amazon in the future.
In addition, they also plan to launch a single bottle of smaller water to meet people's need to drink a small cup or two. In addition to the consumer market, Aquiem will launch larger packages of coffee water in the future, which will be sold to cafes. B2B may be a good direction, considering the large number of people spending in cafes.
There are more and more subdivided types of water and conceptual aquatic products. In China, Nongfu Spring launched baby water and student water in 2015. It seems that the demand for these subdivisions is not very large, but now the packaging water without any features may be really difficult to sell.
In addition to the high-end water that highlights the design sense of water packaging, aquatic products in the niche market may be another direction. Bottled water seems to be extending to both ends: water that has been softened many times, and water that is rich in minerals (such as "black water" BLK). In addition to coffee beans, someone came up with the idea of water and launched a water brand called Aquiem, which is specially used to make coffee. The price of a box of water (12 boxes, 1 liter each) is $25.68. The water is produced in Miami and is packed in Tetra Pak.
"98% of a cup of coffee is water," says Frank Manale, founder of Aquiem, who believes that water can largely influence the quality of coffee. As a coffee lover, he would take his favorite beans with him when he was on a business trip, but found that he went to another place. Because of the different water quality, the taste of coffee was different from that he drank at home. He felt that tap water and ordinary bottled pure water could not meet his needs.
Aquiem's water is first filtered and softened to remove all the minerals (zinc, lead, chlorine and fluoride) from the water, and then they add some minerals that enhance the taste of coffee: magnesium, potassium and small amounts of calcium. Although it is designed to make coffee, you can also use it to make tea or drink it directly

Coffee bean exports plunged 33.7% in July compared with the same period last year.
Coffee bean exports plummeted in July, according to figures released on Aug. 11 by the Brazilian Coffee Export Association, coffee bean exports plunged 33.7% in July from a year earlier to 1.9 million bags (1 bag = 60kg), mainly due to low stocks and the lack of newly harvested coffee beans to catch up with exports. Affected by this, the price of international coffee futures has increased slightly. On August 16, the price of the American coffee futures contract reached a high of 137 on that day.

1. The layout determines the outcome. The site selection in the early stage is very important. The larger 1000-meter and more-than-2000 square meters of stores should be located in the administrative district or the more dense commercial areas, and the middle and bottom 100-500-square-meter stores should be located in dense residential areas, office buildings, university towns, hospitals and so on. 2; environment. Grade determines the number of consumers, determines what kind of people the coffee shop receives, and what you have to have.
