Peru offers excellent conditions to produce coffee of high quality. The exportation of coffee to countries like USA, Germany and Belgium, where coffee consumption is very high, is a proof of its quality.

However, if we speak about the coffee quality that is consumed in Peru, mostly of it is of low quality. The most sold coffee in the stores in Lima, where almost a third of the peruvian population lives, is the soluble instant coffee. One reason for it could be the lack of technology and the lack of norms.

In the last years, farmers are having more access to machines. With the help of loans, they can acquire technology and with it process their own coffee and sell it in the national market. Regulations in the production of coffee is also helping to increase the quality of coffee products.
