India’s coffee exports saw a 40.37% jump to $1.8 billion in 2024-25 from $1.29 billion in 2023-24 and a double-digit growth on the higher base is expected in 2025-26, driven by key FTAs [free trade agreements], two officials said requesting anonymity. “The recently concluded FTA with the bloc of four-European countries, and the imminent trade deal with the EU have further brightened prospects of coffee exports,” one of them said, citing the PM's statement on Sunday.
