The recent exemption of tariffs on coffee imports into the US opens an exciting window of
opportunity for Angola’s coffee industry—and for global buyers looking for high-quality beans at
competitive rates.

What This Means for the Angola Coffee Market
1. Increased Competitiveness – With tariffs removed, Angolan coffee enters the US market
without the additional cost burden, making it more price-competitive against other coffee
origins.
2. Stronger Export Demand – US roasters and importers are likely to expand sourcing from
Angola, driving export volumes upward.
3. Premium Potential – Angola’s Arabica and Robusta beans, known for their distinct flavour
profiles, can now compete more aggressively in specialty and bulk segments.
4. Market Diversification – Reduced trade barriers encourage long-term contracts,
strengthening Angola’s foothold in North America and balancing reliance on traditional
European and Asian buyers.

Opportunities for Traders & Buyers
With the tariff exemption lowering landed costs of Angola’s best-growing coffee, now is the time for
US importers to secure supply agreements and lock in competitive pricing before demand
accelerates.

This policy shift is a strategic advantage for Angola’s coffee sector and a direct benefit
to global buyers seeking quality, origin-traceable coffee at a better price point.
