If you rely on a daily ‘cup of ambition’ to help you tumble out of bed, that means that each morning, you’re ingesting one of the top two most traded commodities in the world, second only to petrol fuels. Global coffee production has really taken off since 2000, when 6.5 million tons of coffee were produced annually. Today, over 9 million tons of coffee are produced yearly to keep up with the demand for the brewed beverage that is only surpassed by water in terms of global consumption.

Your daily morning cup of coffee may get you up and moving. Still, it also symbolizes the end result of a long growing and processing operation from bean to brew—and a whole industry centered around delivering 1 billion people more than 2.25 billion cups of coffee every day. That calls for a whole lot of coffee beans, meaning coffee farmers stay busy balancing tight profit margins and keeping up with demand.  

Are you a coffee lover? If yes, why not start a business that aligns with your passion?
