Key Market Indicators
Yemeni coffee consumption is projected to decline over the next five years. By 2028, consumption is expected to drop to approximately 9,800 metric tons, down from 11,000 metric tons in 2023. This represents a year-on-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) decrease of 1.8%. This trend continues a pattern observed since 2019, where demand has fallen by 3.3% annually. Similarly, Yemeni coffee production is also on a downward trajectory. Production is forecasted to reach around 77,000 60-kg bags by 2028, compared to 96,000 bags in 2023. This equates to an average annual decline of 3.5%. The decline in supply has been ongoing since 2003, with an annual decrease of 1.9%. These figures highlight the challenges facing Yemen's coffee industry, which has historically been a significant part of the country's agricultural sector.
