What HS 2101.12 covers

This reflects the diversification of coffee consumption into various food and beverage formats beyond traditional brewing. Products here cater to convenience, specialty markets, and the growing demand for coffee-flavored items. Importers are often food service providers, retailers, and manufacturers of confectionery, dairy products, and ready-to-drink beverages. Exporters are typically countries with advanced food processing capabilities and strong consumer brands that develop innovative coffee-based products.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
