Tea & Coffee 03/02 - Nicaragua: A Proud Country (Cont) (#)
„According to Cesar Marenco, manager of Orocafe’s Nicaragua office, “Orocafe is not a coffee exporter of big amounts, we prefer a personal relationship between the farmers and the company. The last crop we exported exported was 50,000 bags of 69 kg.” Their major brands include “Shg Alto Matagalpa good screen”, “Maragogype Gran Matagalpa”,” Peaberry Star shg” and “Sara unwashed.” They only have three operations in Central America, Nicaragua, Guatemala, and Honduras. Marenco says, “We consider that Nicaragua is a country of opportunities.”“

Tea & Coffee 02/02 - The Starbucks Experience Going Global (Cont)
„After all, a share purchased in 1992 at the IPO is now worth more than 16 times its original value, taking into account stock splits. As Schultz points out, a contemplative moment of relaxation over a Starbucks latte is an affordable luxury even during a recession. “I have a strong buy recommendation on the stock,” says John Glass of Deutsche Banc Alex Brown. This is the best long-term play in the restaurant/retail field I’ve ever seen.” As long as the company sticks to its core expertise, Glass is confident that the firm can continue to expand successfully.“

„The exporters are then allowed 10 days to evaluate the quality of each small lot.In an open cry forum, the coffee is sold to the highest bidder. Kobricks, our supplier, buys its Kenyans through an exporter who participates in this bidding process- a process that ensures the highest quality coffee commands the highest market price, thus rewarding farmers for a job well done. Kenyan coffee is wet-processed and sold by the size of the bean, with AA signifying the largest (and most desirable), followed by A and B.“

Tea & Coffee 09/01 - Smaller Companies Thrive On Bar/Cafe Business: Why? (Cont)
„Despite the change to a larger and more commercial production, Bresaola always kept his workers and refused to replace them by converting the production line into money-saving new technology. The fall of the dollar’s value in the early 1990s was therefore a true crisis for Olympia. Rather than fall from his mountain height, the elderly Bresaola sold his factory in 1992 - and not to another espresso company.“
