Industry Analysis:
A coffee business provides unbelievably high profit margins, more than most other
types of businesses. It is estimated that a cup of coffee can generate upwards of 50%
in profit. The great thing about a coffee business is that, though cyclical as people
will consume less hot drinks during the summer, it is nevertheless becoming more
common for people to drink coffee even in the summer.
Recent trends have shifted from ordinary coffee to more speciality coffees. This
trend has partly been emphasised by Starbucks, which recently announced a project
to open 40,000 new stores worldwide. There is no doubt that new coffee culture is
brewing and one that bodes well for new entrants in the market.
Coffee consumption has shown a steady 2.5% growth rate in the India over the last
decade. In 1994, total sales of coffee were approximately 7.5 billion with gourmet
coffee representing 33% (or 2.5 billion) of that. The retail coffee industry is
flourishing in the India. At the same time, hot dry summers drive people into cafes
to order iced drinks. Further, coffee has really become a part of the lifestyle in the
high society of India. Its discerning coffee drinkers are in favor of well-prepared,
strong coffee-based beverages, which they can consume in a relaxing environment
