Known for its organic and fair trade certified arabica, peru’s coffee thrives in regions such as cajamarca, junín and amazonas. Peru continues to be a global leader in the production of organic coffee, although smallholder farmers continue to struggle with profitability due to higher production costs, and lack of access to credit and premium. Peru’s coffee production is forecast to reach 4.2 million bags in 2025/2026, an 8% increase driven by better prices, fertilizer use, and organic market leadership.
