Switzerland as the Secret Coffee Superpower: Nespresso Supplies the World from Here
Published
Switzerland is known to many people primarily for chocolate, watches and mountains. But the country also plays an important role when it comes to coffee. According to a report by the business magazine Bilanz, Switzerland is the secret coffee superpower. The brown bean has an important centre in our country.
The most well-known company in this area is Nespresso. From Switzerland, the firm supplies customers all over the world with coffee capsules. The company belongs to the food group Nestlé, which also has its headquarters in Switzerland. That the capsules are delivered from here to many countries shows how great Switzerland's influence in this field is.
For the Swiss economy, coffee is therefore more than just a beverage. The industry creates jobs in production, logistics and administration. At the same time, the coffee industry faces challenges, for example regarding the origin of the beans and the question of how coffee can be produced and packaged in an environmentally friendly way.
In summary, Switzerland is far more significant in the coffee business than many people think. From the country on Lake Geneva, coffee is distributed to the whole world. Whether this role will remain the same in the future depends, among other things, on the markets and on consumer behaviour.
