The Coffee Industry

in #teamsouthafrica6 years ago

Oil is the number one commodity in the world.

And the second biggest one is coffee at an amazing $225.2 Billion in terms of the total economic impact of the coffee industry in the United States!

Coffee represents 1.6% of the total U.S. gross domestic product!

Consumers spent out of their pockets $74.2 Billion on Coffee!

There are 1,694,710 jobs in the US economy based on the drink!

$28 billion in taxes!

Sort:  

its a sad state for humanity that nearly everyone on earth has to regularly get fired up on caffeine just to make it through the day

You're a poet that's awesome.

Would never have guessed coffee was the second largest, but taking a walk outside it is easy to see why.
