India became the world's seventh-largest coffee producer, with exports nearly doubling to $1.29 billion in FY 2023-24, driven by global demand for Arabica and Robusta beans, primarily grown in Karnataka, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu.
Domestic coffee consumption is steadily rising, fueled by the cafe culture and changing preferences, increasing from 84,000 tonnes in 2012 to 91,000 tonnes in 2023, reflecting a shift in drinking habits across urban and rural areas.
