The Brazilian Coffee Industry The Brazilian Coffee Industry The Brazilian Coffee Industry Coffee beverage, a widely consumed beverage around the world, is derived from processed coffee beans (green beans). While the cultivation of coffee trees and production of coffee beans is spread among sixty countries worldwide, there is an increasingly smaller number of buyers and roasters of green coffee. Brazil and Colombia are the largest coffee producing countries, while over 70% of all coffee contracts are traded in Switzerland. The production of coffee beans is a labor intense industry since it requires handpicking of ripe beans. The production of coffee is also highly correlated to weather conditions, since the coffee tree is sensitive to low temperatures. Therefore, annual production of coffee is unpredictable until the end of the harvest season. There are currently six intermediaries in the distribution channel between the farmer and the end consumer. In the last decade there has been a trend toward consolidation and globalization, and it is expected that during this decade the number of intermediaries will decline to just three.
