Indonesia's coffee sector has achieved a remarkable milestone, with export values soaring to USD 1.63 billion. This significant growth reflects the rising global appreciation for Indonesian coffee varieties and the successful expansion of international market reach. In response to this momentum, the Ministry of Agriculture is aggressively pushing for the acceleration of downstream processing (hilirization). By shifting from exporting raw beans to high-value processed coffee products, the government aims to maximize domestic added value, stabilize prices for local farmers, and solidify Indonesia's position as a premium global supplier.

For association members and industry stakeholders, this strategic focus opens extensive opportunities for investment in modern processing technology and branding. The Ministry is committed to supporting this transition through technical assistance, improved post-harvest facilities, and streamlining regulations for exporters. By integrating sustainable farming practices with advanced industrial processing, Indonesia is poised to not only increase its export revenue but also to ensure the long-term resilience and competitiveness of its coffee industry in the face of evolving global consumer trends.
