Let us celebrate coffee day together!

For more than 600 years, humans have enjoyed coffee and its benefits. Coffee has evolved a lot, from a bean discovered by goat herders in Ethiopia around 700 AD to the cup of joe you know today.

Today, coffee is produced in over 70 countries. The majority of coffee comes from Brazil, Vietnam, Colombia, and Indonesia. It is the world's 2nd most traded commodity.

There is a coffee for every taste, which makes this beverage loved by so many people. So whether you like it dark, iced or as a latte, enjoy a cup of coffee today and think about its rich history and about how far it had to travel to get to you.

International coffee day was established in 2015. Its goal is to plan for the next generation of coffee entrepreneurs. With global warming and the pandemic, it's been hard for a lot of buisnesses that revolve around coffee cultivation and production, as well as for coffee shops that have had to close or have had less traffic than usual.
