Kunming, February 27 (Xinhua) — At a coffee factory in Baoshan, Yunnan Province (southwest China), batches of coffee beans, ground coffee, and instant coffee are packaged and quality-checked before being shipped to Russia. According to company representative Gao Neng, the factory supplies approximately 10 tons of coffee products to the Russian market each month.
Gao Neng noted that the company's export volume of coffee and related products in 2025 would reach approximately 13 million yuan (approximately $1.9 million) in value. He added that Russia and Central Asia have become rapidly growing sales markets for the company.
Yunnan is one of China's major coffee-producing regions. Statistics show that by 2025, the province's coffee plantation area would reach 1.46 million mu (1 hectare = 15 mu), with green coffee bean production reaching 138,900 tonnes. Last year, the province exported 19,000 tonnes of coffee, valued at 860 million yuan. Coffee products from the province are exported to 43 countries and regions worldwide, including Russia, Kyrgyzstan, and Slovenia, demonstrating a more diversified international market.
Currently, the coffee industry in Yunnan Province is gradually moving from the supply of raw materials to their advanced processing.
Last year, the aforementioned Baoshan company independently developed 17 new products, including cold brew coffee (a method of preparing coffee by steeping ground beans in cold water for a long time rather than brewing them in boiling water). "The company first exported these products in 2025, and they are now sold in five countries, including Russia," said Gao Neng.
The company will also continue to actively seek foreign partners to further expand the scale of foreign trade, he added.
Baoshan coffee's international reputation is based on the high quality of its raw materials, grown in unique natural conditions. Situated in the Gaoligong Mountains and the Nujiang River basin, the dry and hot climate of the river valley gives the local small-grain coffee cherries a distinctive flavor, characterized by strength rather than bitterness, and a pleasant aroma with a slight fruity acidity.
