About coffee, whether or not roasted or decaffeinated; husks and skins; coffee substitutes containing coffee in any proportion

HS code 0901 encompasses the global trade of coffee, a commodity that has been a staple in the diets and economies of many countries for centuries. As one of the most widely consumed beverages in the world, coffee plays a significant role in the international trade landscape, with its production, processing, and distribution impacting a vast network of industries and communities worldwide.

Production process

The production of coffee involves several key steps, beginning with the harvesting of coffee cherries from the coffee plant. These cherries are then processed, either through a wet or dry method, to extract the coffee beans. The beans are then roasted, a critical step that enhances the flavor and aroma of the final product. Decaffeination, if required, is also carried out at this stage. Finally, the roasted and/or decaffeinated beans are packaged and distributed for consumption.

Production inputs

The coffee industry relies on a variety of inputs, including fertile land, suitable climate conditions, and skilled labor for cultivation and harvesting. Additionally, specialized machinery and equipment are necessary for processing, roasting, and packaging the coffee beans. Other significant inputs include energy sources, transportation infrastructure, and packaging materials.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 0901 is roasted and/or decaffeinated coffee, which is then consumed directly or used as an ingredient in a wide range of products, such as 2101 Extracts, essences and concentrates, of coffee, and preparations with a basis of these extracts, essences or concentrates or with a basis of coffee, 2202 Waters, including mineral waters and aerated waters, containing added sugar or other sweetening matter or flavoured, and 2208 Undenatured ethyl alcohol of an alcoholic strength by volume of less than 80% vol; spirits, liqueurs and other spirituous beverages.
