Episode 71: Indian coffee at origin: Meeting the rapid pace of demand

In the final part of our series on the Indian coffee market, we’re travelling to origin to explore what's happening in India’s vast and dynamic coffee farm sector.

To get to know this sector better, we speak with Ashok Kuriyan and Rohan Kuriyan, Managing Director and Manager of Corporate Affairs at Balanoor Plantations - a renowned producer of specialty coffee in Karnataka, India.

In this conversation, Ashok and Rohan discuss Indian consumers' growing interest in the origin of home grown coffees, and shed light on the social, economic and environmental challenges Indian coffee producers are currently navigating at farm-level.

Catch up on parts one and two here.
