LONDON: Raw coffee price shocks take about a year to feed through to consumers while the residual impact lasts at least four years, according to a report published on Friday by the United Nation's Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO).
Thanks to persistent adverse weather crimping supplies and eating into global stockpiles, raw coffee prices have been on a tear, with arabica gaining 70% on the ICE exchange last year and more than 20% so far this year.
According to the FAO, about 80% of these price rises will feed through to consumers over the course of 11 months in the European Union, while in the United States 80% of the price rises will feed through to consumers over 8 months.
The U.S. and the European Union are by far the world's largest coffee consuming regions.
In terms of producing countries, the UN body said prices for coffee bean growers rose 17.8% in Ethiopia, 12.3% in Kenya, 13.6% in Brazil, and 11.9% in Colombia - a far cry from gains seen on internationally traded markets like ICE.
