Earlier Report Observations

The market volume for coffee, husks, skins, and substitutes in Comoros showed significant fluctuations between 2018 and 2023. After a moderate increase to 225 tons in 2019, consumption dropped to 212.4 tons in 2020. A sharp rebound followed in 2021, with the market reaching 268 tons, before another decline to 214.7 tons in 2022. The market recovered again in 2023, rising to 261.8 tons.

These swings were primarily driven by changes in imports, which varied from 71.8 tons to 124.6 tons annually, while domestic production remained relatively stable around 140 tons per year. The country's negligible exports meant that market size closely tracked the sum of production and imports.

In 2024, imports fell to 68.1 tons. The coffee sector in Comoros is characterized by the cultivation of Robusta coffee under shade trees, with beans handpicked and sun-dried. Government efforts to improve the business climate and access to credit, supported by the Central Bank, aim to bolster the industry. Regionally, the Inter-African Coffee Organization promotes value chain transformation to boost domestic consumption and sustainable growth, which could influence future market development.
