How Nescafé instant coffee is made

Americans consumed over 1.3 billion cups of Nescafé last year, helping the brand become Swiss-based food giant Nestlé’s largest coffee segment. Overseas it’s a similar story. With sales in over 180 countries, one in seven cups of coffee consumed worldwide is a Nescafé. 

But the company’s farmers face a number of challenges including high labor costs and rising temperatures that could shrink the suitable area for growing coffee by up to 50%, according to the Inter-American Development Bank.

Nescafé works with over 100,000 farmers, buys more than 13 million bags of green coffee annually and has two dozen factories globally.
