India coffee - Indian Coffee, monthly magazine - Cover story, The US coffee Market, Dr.S.Radhakrishnan April 2003, (#)

  „Supermarkets and hypermarkets still play the leading role in the distribution of coffee drinks, accounting for 58.6% of volume sales in 2001. As the majority of US hot drinks consumption is non-premium fresh or instant coffee, supermarkets and hypermarkets benefit from relying primarily on brands such as Folgers and Maxwell House. "Other" channels which include both franchised and independent coffee houses saw their share of retail hot drinks volume increase by 4.2 percentage points between 1997 and 2001, to 29.2%. The practise of coffee houses such as Starbucks or Peet's selling their fresh bean or ground coffee for take-home consumption has come into great prominence in recent years.“

India Coffee- Indiacoffee - Indian Coffee, monthly magazine - Over a Cup of Coffee

  „We may not have the luxury of having eight cups of coffee, given the state of our physique and the worrying nature of our minds. And yet, even the generation reared on "one black coffee" still realizes that there is no greater pleasure than the perfectly made first cup of coffee. Everyone talks about getting up on the right side of the bed as the perfect start to the day, but to me, it has been and will always be the perfectly brewed cup of coffee, which sets the tone for the day.“

Indiacoffee - Indian Coffee, monthly magazine - Inauguration

  „Likewise primary producers also need to look at forward integration into processing of value added coffees at origins through joint ventures/partnerships; more so in countries like India that have a potential domestic market also. New types of producer-buyer relationships such as contract farming also need to be given impetus along with development and promotion of "fair trade" coffees. With the coffee industry the world over undergoing a "secular" change, producers need to be innovative, goal oriented and forward looking. The traditional mind set of the coffee grower has to change and in this new environment, it is producers with entrepreneurial vision and managerial capacity who will survive and succeed.“

And reveal the real value of the Indian coffee bean.“
