15,000 Coffee Trainees
The Arab Coffee Institute aims to train around 15,000 people by 2030, preparing workers for careers in cafés, coffee roasting and coffee preparation. Over the past three years, it has trained around 2,500 farmers, as well as approximately 2,500 young men and women in roasting, tasting, evaluation and preparation skills. This comes amid a Saudi market that imports between 80,000 and 90,000 tonnes of coffee annually, with imports growing by 5% to 7% each year. The market has around 40,000 café registrations or licences and more than 300 roasteries. The institute plans to expand to Jeddah in 2027 and strengthen its presence in Tabuk and the southern region. The investment in establishing the institute and training its team ranged from SAR 3 million to SAR 5 million.
