Caffé Nero, too, suggested that the future of the coffee house remained strong especially when combined with food sales which, at the Nero, amounts to 35% of total earnings.

Coffee Guide - Coffee Politics (#)

TransFair USA is an independent 3rd party certification that ensures that: Coffee importers agree to purchase from the small farmers included in the International Fair Trade Coffee Register. Farmers are guaranteed a minimum "fair trade price" of $1.26/pound FOB for their coffee. If world price rises above this floor price, farmers will be paid a small ($0.05/pound) premium above market price. Coffee importers provide a certain amount of credit to farmers against future sales, helping farmers stay out of debt to local coffee "coyotes" or middlemen. Importers and roasters agree to develop direct, long-term trade relationships with producer groups, thereby cutting out middlemen and bringing greater commercial stability to an extremely unstable market.“

„2.  In the early 1990s earnings by coffee producing countries (exports f.o.b) were some US$10-12 billion and the value of retail sales of coffee, largely in industrialised countries, about US$30 billion. Now the value of retail sales exceeds US$70 billion but coffee producing countries only receive US$5.5 billion.  Prices on world markets, which averaged around 120 US cents/lb in the 1980s, are now around 50 cents, the lowest in real terms for 100 years.  The fall in prices over the last five years has been dramatic and is illustrated in the graph below. The drop in earnings is particularly severe for those countries such as Uganda where coffee provides a large portion (over half in this case) of export revenues.“

The Coffees of Yemen (#)

„And don't blame me if you become addicted! A post 9/11 note: I have heard that Yemen coffee sales in the US are down as a reaction to terrorism, but I consider that a prejudiced, ignorant response. The fact that the people of Yemen and other countries do not share the benefits of global trade as equals with western nations is part of the problem, and refusing to buy products from countries (who in both their trade and politics have shown they do not support terrorism) only exasperates the problem further. If you want this wonderful, true arabic coffee, have the courage to buy it.“
