Indonesian officials are anticipating an increase in coffee bean imports this year.
Domestic production is down due to extreme weather so importers are looking to Brazil, Vietnam, and other countries for as much as 100 metric tons of coffee, according to the Association of Indonesian Coffee Exporters and Industries. That volume would represent a 43% increase in imports.
Indonesia’s domestic consumption continues to rise with an expanding coffee culture and a demand for robusta beans used in instant coffees.
