Which EU countries produce the most coffee?

Coffee production across the EU has increased by 15% in the last decade, according to new Eurostat data.

Each EU citizen consumed around 5 kg of coffee in 2023. Total production, including roasted, decaffeinated and substitute coffee products, reached over 2 million tonnes last year, a production worth €13 billion.

Italy led the way, producing a quarter (25%) of EU coffee, followed by Germany (22%), France (6%) and the Netherlands (6%).

The EU also imports around 2.7 million tonnes of coffee each year, worth €10.6 billion.

Germany buys a third of it (33%), followed by Italy (23%), Belgium (10%), Spain (9%) and France (7%).

The majority of EU coffee imports last year came from Brazil – 921,900 tonnes, or 34% of total non-EU imports. Vietnam was responsible for 24%, with Uganda providing 8%.

But a new EU law expected to come into force in 2025 could drastically change that picture, forcing coffee producers to prove that their supply chain does not cause deforestation.

According to data published by the French government, coffee is a crop with a high deforestation potential.

"As the world's largest importer of coffee, the EU is responsible for 44% of coffee-related deforestation," the report warns.
