Peruvians raised their coffee consumption by almost one kilo per capita

At the beginning of the year, Peruvian coffee was awarded in the International Contest for Roasted Coffees at Origin, which catapulted the interest and curiosity of consumers due to the wide diversity of its flavors and characteristics.

Gerardo Pacchioni, manager of the Electro division at fallabella.com, points out that only during May and June, the sale of coffee makers online grew 7%. In addition, it is among the five most searched words in his virtual store.

It is worth remembering that, according to the Chamber of Tourism, Production, Ecology and Culture of Villa Rica, the change in preferences is related to the increase in personal coffee consumption in Peru in the last 20 yearswhich went from 250 grams per year to almost a kilo.

Likewise, by 2030 the volume is expected to exceed 5 kilos per capita, the general manager of the National Commission for Development and Life without Drugs reported for La República at the time (OF LIFE), Martin Villafuerte.

For this year, it is estimated that coffee production in the commercial season will exceed 4 million 60-kilo bags, which would represent a 2% increase compared to the previous year.
