Coffee & Tea Production in Canada industry analysis

Coffee and tea production revenue has endured substantial volatility in recent years, contending with supply chain disruptions and wild fluctuations in key input prices. The pandemic derailed production, as the largest downstream market, food service establishments, shriveled amid nonessential business closures and social distancing orders. Sales to retailers buoyed revenue but could not plug the leak, resulting in substantial revenue losses. However, consumers released pent-up demand once vaccinated, rejuvenating atrophied markets and sending revenue sky-high. In the pandemic's wake, growth has simmered, displaying more normalized performance. Over the past five years, revenue has been expanding at a CAGR of 1.0% and is expected to reach $3.1 billion in 2024, following a 2.4% dip.

Trends and Insights

  • Coffee and tea production revenues have endured significant volatility from supply chain disruptions and fluctuating input prices. Nevertheless, the average producer capitalized in growing demand for coffee, boosting revenue and substantially widening profit.
  • Single-cup coffee products enjoy rising popularity despite significant sustainability concerns. Efforts like recyclable and compostable pods are being explored, but convenience drives strong sales. Environmental issues haven't halted growth.
  • Ontario is favored by coffee and tea producers due to its large population and high concentration of supermarkets. It remains the top destination for industry goods and a notable downstream market.
  • Buyers dictate demand as coffee and tea are essentials, not luxuries. Manufacturers adjust prices based on world bean costs, passing any increases to consumers. Buyer power remains high and steady.
