According to analysis by Roif Expert, the market volume increased by approximately 300 billion rubles in recent periods, marking the highest level recorded since monitoring began.

Analysts note that this growth is supported by increased domestic production of both regular and roasted coffee. Major Russian producers are expanding their production capacities to meet rising consumer demand. At the same time, coffee imports continue to show a stable upward trend, making the Russian market attractive to foreign companies, while exports, despite some international restrictions, have potential for expansion.

Additionally, the market is directly influenced by the overall economic situation, regional factors, and geopolitical conditions, making adaptability crucial for companies to maintain their market share.
