In the next five years \u201cwe should target to increase domestic coffee consumption to at least 15 per cent.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Brig-Gen Gaguti said in developed countries people aged between 80 and 100 years were using coffee and this had helped to improve their health.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When people think of coffee, they usually think of its ability to provide an energy boost.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, according to some research, it can also offer some other important health benefits, such as a lower risk of liver cancer, type 2 diabetes and heart failure,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Tanzania Coffee Board (TCB), domestic coffee consumption is growing at an average of between 1.5 and 2.0 per cent per year due to a coffee drinking culture, which is gradually taking root in urban and semi-urban areas.<\/p>\n<p>The annual per capita coffee consumption in the country is 0.06kg and only 7 per cent of the country&#8217;s total coffee production is consumed domestically.<\/p>\n<p>Worldwide, experts estimate that people consume about 2.25 billion cups of coffee per day.<\/p>\n<p>Coffee accounts for about 5 per cent of Tanzania&#8217;s total exports by value and generates earnings averaging $100m per year. It provides direct income to about 400,000 smallholder farmers who produce 90 per cent of Tanzania&#8217;s coffee.<\/p>\n<p>Strengthening cooperative unions is highly recommended to create profitable coffee marketing structures for smallholder farmers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: MEDDY MULISA\u00a0\u00a0 AfricaPress-Tanzania: TANGANYIKA Instant Coffee Company Plc (Tanica) has taken aggressive measures to expand markets, especially after introducing a new product of roasted and ground coffee.
