Cold Brew Coffee Global Market Report 2024

Cold brew coffee is a beverage made by steeping coffee grounds in water for an extended period, typically at cold or room temperature. This unique brewing process, different from traditional hot brewing, results in a distinct flavor profile for the same coffee beans. Cold brew often boasts subtle hints of chocolate, a smooth, less acidic, and fruity taste, offering a refreshing alternative to conventionally brewed coffee.

The primary product types of cold brew coffee include those made from arabica, robusta, and liberica beans. Arabica coffee, derived from the Coffea Arabica plant, is esteemed for its lighter body, rich flavor, and nuanced aroma, making it a preferred choice for specialty coffees. Arabica beans contribute to a creamy, more complex taste profile with notes of fruit, chocolate, almonds, and caramel. These beans are available in both traditional and decaffeinated variants and are distributed through various channels such as company-owned outlets, convenience stores, online platforms, supermarkets, and hypermarkets.

The anticipated growth of the cold brew coffee market is influenced by the increasing focus on government initiatives aimed at promoting coffee production.

An example of such initiatives is the establishment of the Saudi Coffee Company by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) in May 2022.

The initiative, supported by a SAR 1.2 billion ($320 million) investment, aims to boost the country's coffee sector, increasing production from 300 to 2,500 metric tons annually. The rise in such government-led endeavors contributes to the growth of the cold brew coffee market, aligning with the increasing consumption trends and investments in the coffee industry.
