The coffee processing industry in China has seen considerable fluctuations over the past decade. Starting from a value of 6.0 thousand metric tons in 2014, it experienced a steep decline in 2015 and 2016, before recovering significantly in 2017 and reaching its peak in recent years. By 2023, the industry rebounded to 12.0 thousand metric tons. Year-on-year variations reveal notable cyclical movements, with a remarkable 140% increase in 2018. The last two years (2022-2023) showed a stable trend with a 9.09% growth in 2023. The five-year CAGR from 2023 to 2028 is forecasted at 3.13%, indicating moderate growth in the upcoming years.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of increasing domestic consumption, the rise of premium coffee products, and technological advancements in processing methods. These factors are likely to drive sustainable growth in China's coffee processing market, albeit at a more modest rate compared to the peak years.
