The objective of this assignment is to explore the coffee market in UK and understand the consumer preferences with aid of data resources and the outcome it would have on a new brand of Mysore coffee in the competitive UK coffee market. As the premium sectors develop in the UK, greater emphasis is placed on Arabica beans, with marketing and pack support centered on the provenance and taste credentials of specific beans.

For instant, Ethiopia applied to trademark two different Arabica beans in the US in 2006 - called Sidamo and Harar (Source Mintel, Report 2006). Arabica beans command a high price because tastes are particular to a growing location. Brazil is the world’s largest producer of Arabica beans. Erratic weather during the growing season 2006-7 led to market nervousness and prices reached around $2.66 per kg, up 16% since 2005 (according to data from the International Coffee Association).
