The coffee and tea market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $117.72 billion in 2023 to $125.75 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to a rise in coffee and tea consumption, a heightened emphasis on ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages, and government initiatives.

The coffee and tea market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $159.34 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period is linked to escalating investments, a growing preference for coffee among millennials, and an increasing number of coffee shops. Key trends during this period involve a focus on premium products, the production of organic offerings, the utilization of blockchain technology, and the integration of artificial intelligence to enhance product quality.

The projected rise in demand for ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages is anticipated to be a significant driver for the coffee and tea markets in the upcoming forecast period. RTD beverages, packaged and readily consumable at the point of purchase, have gained favor among employed adults due to their transparent labels and functional attributes. The incorporation of novel flavors into the RTD tea and coffee segment, coupled with their portability and convenience, is poised to amplify the demand for these offerings. Forecasts suggest substantial growth, with the global RTD tea and coffee market estimated to reach $116.1 billion by 2024 at a CAGR of 5.6%. Likewise, RTD tea consumption alone is projected to hit 50 billion liters in 2021, growing at a CAGR of 5.3%. This burgeoning demand for RTD beverages, encompassing coffee and tea segments, is expected to be a key driver propelling growth in the coffee and tea market.

The proliferating number of coffee shops is poised to significantly fuel the expansion of the coffee and tea market in the foreseeable future. Coffee shops, known for serving an array of beverages along with food items such as pastries and snacks, have seen a notable surge attributed to evolving consumer preferences and lifestyle shifts. For instance, as per Project Cafe 2023, a publication by World Coffee Portal, the United States witnessed an upsurge in branded coffee shops to 38,411 establishments, marking a 2.8% increase post the COVID-19 pandemic. This rise indicates an escalating trend in coffee shop presence, especially in the largest consumer market for coffee. Consequently, the burgeoning number of coffee shops stands as a significant driving force in the expansion of the coffee and tea market.

Coffee companies are increasingly delving into coffee subscription services, offering consumers the convenience of home-delivered coffee products through weekly or monthly subscription models. These services open doors to a diverse array of specialty roasters, granting access to a multitude of unique products that might otherwise be unavailable locally. With the capability to source from numerous roasters, these subscriptions ensure freshness, shipping the products immediately post-roasting, thus bypassing the shelf time in stores. Notable coffee subscription services such as Atlas Coffee Club, Driftaway Coffee, Blue Bottle Coffee, JavaPress Coffee, Mistobox, Bean Box, Craft Coffee, and Pact Coffee are gaining popularity for their offerings.

Prominent players within the coffee market are directing their focus toward crafting distinct coffee blends that resonate with evolving consumer preferences. These unique blends, formed by combining various coffee beans, culminate in exclusive flavor profiles impossible to replicate through single-origin coffee. Tata Consumer Products, for example, introduced the tata coffee gold cold brew in June 2023, presenting a premium ready-to-drink cold coffee in classic, mocha, and hazelnut flavors. Brewed with cold water to preserve its smoothness, this product boasts of premium ingredients without artificial flavors. It aims to cater to consumers seeking an unmatched blend, quality, and convenience in their coffee experience, featuring low sugar content for health-conscious individuals without compromising on taste.
