Report on Challenges in Coffee Industry
Every industry has its own kind of challenges. Early understanding of the challenges faced and their viable, cost-efficient solutions can help the business owners by leaps and bounds. After a comprehensive analysis of the coffee industry, we found several challenges associated with coffee processing and packaging, some of them are discussed below.
Process flexibility: The rising cost of coffee beans on the global market is creating purchasing challenges for producers.
Maximizing existing assets: Consumer preferences are changing as darker roasts have increased in popularity. Therefore, an asset utilization issue is created.
Packaging changes: Manufacturers in production industries face challenges with packaging flexibility.
Pest and disease attack: Coffee beans are sensitive and susceptible to pests, diseases, and fungi. Coffee leaf rust has been known to dramatically affect crops and jeopardize yields.
Environmental Factors: Climate change is estimated to ensure a 50% loss of viable coffee-growing land and a 10-20% loss of yield worldwide by 2050.
Accepting the supply chain challenge: There are so many facets constantly changing within the coffee supply chain that it means there is a multitude of obstacles that it faces. For example protection of beans while transporting.
