Global coffee bean export rankings
Coffee is one of the most popular drinks in the world, and coffee beans are an important raw material for making coffee. Countries around the world have their own unique coffee culture and industry, and some countries have occupied an important position in the world with their export volume. This article will introduce several major production and export countries according to the global coffee bean export volume ranking.
Brazil
Brazil is the world's largest coffee producer and exporter.

According to statistics, Brazil accounts for more than 70% of the global market share each year.
Brazil grows several varieties of coffee trees, including Arabica and Robusta. Arabica is a high-quality, low-acid, richly flavored variety with a higher price, while Robusta is more resistant to pests and diseases, has strong adaptability, and has high yields but relatively low quality. Brazilian coffee beans are mainly exported to consumer markets such as the United States, Germany and Italy.
Vietnam
Vietnam is the world's second-largest coffee producer and exporter. The country began growing coffee in the 1980s and quickly became a significant supplier. Vietnam mainly grows Robusta coffee beans, which are highly adaptable, easy to cultivate and relatively cheap.

They use traditional planting and processing methods to produce export-grade coffee beans. Colombia exports a large amount of high-quality Arabica coffee beans to all parts of the world every year.
