Assess the actual lot quality, crop conditions and storage requirements together.
Check the available lot
Confirm screen size, moisture, defect rate and packing for the intended lot. Samples and test reports should carry the appropriate lot identification.
Protect quality in transit
Green coffee needs dry storage away from moisture and foreign odours. Packing and container conditions should suit the route. Protective liners depend on product quality and the buyer’s requirements.
Include in your enquiry
- Robusta or Arabica, screen size and quality specifications.
