BROOKLYN, N.Y., USA – Cheeky Cocktails, the maker of bar-quality, 100% real juices and syrups, unveiled its latest innovation today – a Decaf Espresso Syrup that redefines convenience and quality for coffee enthusiasts and mixologists alike. Following the successful launch of Marcona Almond Orgeat and Habanero Hot Honey Syrups, Cheeky continues to elevate the cocktail and culinary experience with pioneering flair.

Just in time for National Coffee Day (September 29th), the Decaf Espresso Syrup meets consumers’ desires for more balanced options when enjoying coffee beverages.

Decaf Espresso Syrup: A Revolution in Flavor

Cheeky’s Decaf Espresso Syrup, crafted in collaboration with Brooklyn’s esteemed Partners Coffee, combines decaffeinated coffee, cane sugar and gum arabic. The decaffeination method (Mountain Water Process) used in the production of this coffee is free from harsh chemicals and solvents found in some conventional practices.

The addition of cane sugar and gum arabic – a natural gum derived from the sap of acacia trees – delivers a perfect balance of sweetness and velvety mouthfeel every time.

Espresso Martinis have soared in popularity, becoming a staple in cocktail culture. Known for their full-bodied coffee flavor and luxurious crema, these cocktails traditionally require fresh-brewed espresso and a meticulous preparation process.

With Cheeky’s syrup, crafting the perfect Decaf Espresso Martini is now effortless. Just two ingredients are needed to shake up the perfect Martini — this syrup and your choice of base spirit. Designed to simplify the creation of espresso-based drinks, Cheeky’s syrup is a game-changer for anyone who enjoys the rich flavor of coffee but avoids caffeine.

Why Decaf?

For many, the allure of espresso lies in its deep, rich flavor rather than its caffeine content. A decaf option allows for indulgence without the jitteriness associated with caffeine. Whether you’re enjoying a late-night cocktail or reducing caffeine intake, Cheeky’s Decaf Espresso Syrup provides flavor without the buzz.

“Customers love our original Espresso Syrup but not everyone can indulge in caffeine after-hours. We are beyond excited to introduce a product that not only offers unparalleled convenience but also delivers exceptional quality and flavor,” said April Wachtel, Founder of Cheeky Cocktails.

Seda's Double Wall cold cups: a new way of drinking sustainably. (Photo: Business Wire)

MOUNT PLEASANT, Wis., USA – In a significant advance towards a sustainable future, Seda North America is launching its innovative compostable Double Wall cold cups on the North American market, paired with the revolutionary paper EcoFit lid. These cups and lids have been specifically designed to meet the demands of rapidly changing legislation that increasingly favors more sustainable packaging solutions.

The new offering provides a game-changing solution for businesses that need to adapt swiftly to new environmental regulations.

Seda’s compostable Double Wall cold cups, made from BPI-certified renewable materials, are engineered for a superior drinking experience. Their unique, patented air gap design keeps beverages colder for longer while significantly reducing condensation and sweating, ensuring an unmatched tactile experience compared with single wall cold cups made of paper or plastic. Consumers will appreciate how their drinks stay fresh and enjoyable without worrying about a sweating and slippery cup, making every sip as satisfying as the last.

The new cup complements the Double Wall line for the hot beverage category, an innovation Seda developed and patented in the early 2000s, and which Seda North America introduced on the U.S. market in the early 2010s. This double wall design provides the best alternative to insulated foam cups, enhancing the consumer experience and fully complying with legislative requirements.

The EcoFit lid, made from the same compostable paperboard as the cups, is a key component of these fully sustainable packages. It is designed to replace traditional plastic lids for both hot and cold beverages, offering a secure, leak-resistant solution that delivers a superior drinking experience. Crafted from 100% renewable, low-carbon certified paperboard, the EcoFit Lid can be combined with Seda’s state-of-the-art printing technology, available in up to 10 colors, offering exceptional branding opportunities on both cup and lid.

Leading coffee, restaurant and convenience store brands across North America are already adopting these innovations to achieve their sustainability ambitions.

In further testimony to the environmental benefits, a recent Seda gate-to-gate screening demonstrated that the EcoFit Lid offers significant environmental advantages over other lid options, including consuming less water and energy in its manufacture than molded fiber lids. By choosing the EcoFit Lid, brands can reduce their environmental impact, support their sustainability goals and contribute to a lower carbon footprint in the packaging supply chain.

“Our new compostable Double Wall cold cups and EcoFit Lids reflect Seda’s commitment to sustainability and innovation,” said Simohammed Jarfaoui, Managing Director of Seda North America. “We are proud to offer products that meet the growing demand for environmentally responsible packaging, and not only meet but exceed the increasingly strict legal requirements. By significantly reducing water consumption and CO2 emissions, our EcoFit Lid sets a new standard for sustainable beverage packaging.”

As consumers increasingly demand more sustainable products, Seda continues to lead the market with the most innovative and eco-friendly packaging solutions, consistently exceeding customer expectations with top-quality and outstanding service.

Seda North America is part of Seda International Packaging Group, a leading sustainable food and food service packaging solutions provider. Headquartered in Naples, Italy, Seda has manufacturing platforms in Italy, Germany, Portugal, the UK and North America.

Coffee futures markets rally again to new highs in London and New York on global supply worries

MILAN – The coffee futures markets rallied again in the last session of the week, with both exchanges rising up sharply to new record highs. In London, Ice Robusta’s contract for November delivery posted its fifth consecutive rise, gaining $190 (+3.7%) and closing Friday, 13 September, to settle at $5,267 (intraday of $5,281), an all-time high for the 10-T contract.

In New York, the contract for December delivery gained 1,005 points (+4%), ending the day and week at 259.45 cents, at 13-year highs.

Compared to the previous Friday, the two contracts gained 10.4% (+$497) and 9.94% (+2,345 points), respectively.

Exactly one year ago (13 September 2023), London closed at $2,479 – a price level was already considered quite high at the time, though being less than half of the current quote.

New York closed the same day at 151.95 cents: more than a dollar less than today.

Weather patterns in the two main producing countries continue to heavily affect the sentiment of the coffee futures markets.

Brazil is grappling with a prolonged drought, which is causing serious damage to the crops.

“The crops are really stressed, very poor condition, it is sad to see,” said coffee agronomist Jonas Ferraresso, who advises coffee farms in Sao Paulo and Minas Gerais state, quoted by Reuters.

He said that even if rains return in October, leading to the flowering phase, trees will hardly have energy to convert those flowers into fruits.

According to the authoritative Fundación Funcafé, it is unlikely that Brazil will be able to provide an abundant harvest next year, given the vegetative state of the trees.

Meanwhile, Safras data, updated on 10 September, indicate that Brazilian producers have already sold 54% of this year’s crop (2024/25), an increase of 14% over the previous month and in line with the average of the last 5 years (2019 to 2023).

The good progress of sales ended up raising the commercial flow above the reference of the same period last year, when the producer had sold 50% of the crop.

So far, 48% of the arabica crop has been sold, which is well below the historical average (52%), although slightly higher than last year.

The maintenance of prices close to the highs for a long period, together with doubts regarding the next Brazilian coffee crop, ends up slowing down the selling momentum and holding back the sales flow.

“The fact is that this price scenario continues to make growers quite comfortable in continuing their strategy of diluting their business flow. Unless there is a sharp decline in prices, they are unlikely to change this stance,” says the report.

As one can easily guess, considering the unprecedented export performance, sales of robusta are increasing strongly and had reached almost two-thirds (66%) of this year’s production by the beginning of September, compared to 57% last year and a 5-year average of 56%.

“The size of the crop, which was lower than initially expected, and extremely high prices, given the aggressiveness of exporters, explain the strong acceleration in sales of canephora (conillon/robusta),” the report also says. “The market continues to focus on exports, with the domestic industry restricting purchases of conillon and increasing arabica in its blend.”

In Vietnam, the toll caused by last week’s typhoon Yagi, which claimed over 230 lives and caused extensive damage, was very heavy.

The natural disaster did not affect the coffee producing areas. On the contrary, the climate continues to be favourable in the central highlands for the final development of the 2024/25 crop, local traders claim.

But the damage caused by the drought in the first half of the year remains, which would have greatly reduced the production potential of the next harvest, which will come into full swing in November.

Trading activity in Vietnam remains subdued due to the limited availability of green coffee. According to sources quoted by Reuters, the Robusta grade 2 is currently offered at a premium of $50 over coffee futures benchmark prices in London.

In Indonesia, on the island of Sumatra, premiums over the London contract are reportedly as high as $280.

KARLSTAD, Sweden – Sustainability must be embraced by all actors if the coffee industry is to survive and thrive. Hence, SCA have designed The Coffee Sustainability Program to explore what sustainability means and the challenges of acting sustainably across the world of coffee. A great initiative according to Löfbergs colleagues Anna Nordström, coffee expert, and Kajsa-Lisa Ljudén, Head of Sustainability, who now have completed in the program.”

Löfbergs at The Coffee Sustainability Program

“We at Löfbergs have long worked hard with sustainability issues, and it was very interesting to get new perspectives. Important aspects such as how the colonial history of coffee affects the way the market looks today triggered many thoughts for us. The program was also proof that we are really ahead of the curve and making wise decisions regarding our future sustainability work”, says Kajsa-Lisa Ljudén.

“A perfect opportunity to combine our passion for coffee and sustainability. It was very educational to participate in the program together with people with different experiences and challenges. One of the participants ran a coffee farm in Brazil, others worked at a micro roastery or in the café industry. In addition, our teacher Erika Koss lived in Kenya for many years. I have long had a burning interest in taste and knowledge of coffee, and being able to add new knowledge about sustainability has really broadened and deepened my interest in coffee”, says Anna Nordström.

Ghana set to grow and drink more coffee thanks to new programmes and initiatives

GENEVA, Switzerland – ITC works with coffee growers and processors in West Africa, helping them reach new markets and grow their operations. In Ghana, coffee producer Asili Coffee is spearheading collective action to boost national coffee production and consumption. In the rolling hills of the Akuapem Ridge in Ghana, a quiet revolution is taking place, and coffee is at the heart of it.

John Nana Addo Francois, the visionary behind Asili Coffee, is spearheading a movement that promises to reshape rural development and socio-economic change in the region. Through his efforts, Asili Coffee is creating opportunities for farmers and fostering a culture of coffee drinking in Ghana, a country better known for its cocoa.

John is part of a broader initiative under the ACP Business-Friendly programme, funded by the European Union and the Organisation of African, Caribbean, and Pacific (ACP) States. Implemented by the International Trade Centre’s (ITC) Alliances for Action, this initiative aims to bolster Ghana’s coffee production and consumption, with Akuapem Ridge at the centre of this vision.

The area has the potential to become Ghana’s coffee hub, with ideal conditions for large-scale production. Former President John Kufuor, a strong proponent of coffee farming, believes that success here could mirror the country’s cocoa success, offering farmers new economic opportunities and building a thriving value chain.
Establishing a Ghanaian hub for coffee farmers

One key project driving this vision forward is the Pilot Coffee Incubator Programme, launched in Akropong in the Eastern Region of Ghana.

The incubator, spearheaded by Asili Coffee Purveyors Limited, aims to make growing coffee less risky while making it easier for young people to enter the industry. The programme is transforming coffee production in Akuapem, supported by key partners such as Ghana’s Cocoa Board (COCOBOD), the German development agency GIZ, and ITC’s Alliances for Action.

By offering free seedlings, training, and access to a ready market, the initiative ensures farmers have the tools and knowledge to succeed.

‘The incubator is important because it creates an inclusive pathway for Ghana to be recognized as a coffee-producing country. But it won’t happen overnight. This is a community project with a 10-20 year timeline,’ says John.

Akuapem is well-positioned for such a transformation. With over 100,000 tenable acres of land and a population of 250,000 – 65% of which are youth – the region offers a strong labour force that can drive large-scale production.

If fully realized, the economic potential is staggering. Each acre of land could generate $1,000 annually, translating to $100 million in income for the area. The programme’s early success is already visible, with the first cohort of farmers, who joined in 2019, now selling their yields to Asili Coffee.

Beyond production, the incubator serves as a one-stop shop for farmers, providing seedlings, training, and research and development, while also acting as an off-take point for their yields. John emphasizes the importance of covering more acreage in coffee and promoting local consumption to create a sustainable coffee culture in Ghana.
A collaborative effort for long-term change

The success of the Akuapem coffee initiative depends on collaboration. Key partners such as ITC and the Ghana Cocoa Board provide crucial support in training, capacity building, and quality control. GIZ’s Agribizz contract farming agreement ensures fair pricing and guaranteed buyers for farmers, providing stability and security for those entering the coffee industry.

John is optimistic about the future of coffee in Ghana. ‘We need to learn how to consume our own produce. This allows us to dictate our destiny when it comes to raw materials,’ he says.

The Coffee Consumption Initiative, part of the broader effort to boost domestic coffee consumption, is supported by a $25,000 grant from the Inter-African Coffee Organization. This funding will help establish model coffee shops across the country, raising awareness of Ghanaian coffee and creating new jobs for young people.

Asili Coffee is now poised to drive both local production and consumption, creating lasting change for the Akuapem region and beyond.

MILAN – Nespresso Professional has announced the addition of new elements to the Nespresso Momento range, the all-in-one modular coffee solution specifically developed for office use. Inspired by the evolution of new workplaces and new ways of working, the Nespresso Momento system is designed to deliver authentic, sustainable, high-quality coffee experiences that bring people together in office environments and encourage the creation of meaningful relationships within teams.

“Today’s office world is changing rapidly: less structured, more global, more diverse, with teams working from remote locations. This makes human interaction even more valuable, since we know that face-to-face discussions – often over a cup of coffee – can trigger creativity. We designed the Nespresso Momento range to be at the heart of these exchanges, enhancing the meaningful employee relationships that create business value,” said Francisco Nogueira, Global Head of Out-Of-Home (OOH) at Nestlé Nespresso.
Timeless Modular Design, Rewarded by the iF Design Award 2019

Nespresso understands that all businesses have different coffee needs, which is why the Nespresso Momento range was designed to meet each of them perfectly.

It boasts a modern, sleek design with simplicity at its core, making it a timeless addition to any office space.

The different elements of the 3 types of machines, 2 different dispensers, and the cabinet option can be arranged to suit the available space to best fit a coffee corner, coffee area, or even smaller kitchen settings, with or without a direct water connection.

The Nespresso Momento ecosystem has also been designed to include the quietest machine in the range, making it suitable even for smaller meeting or conference rooms, or in open spaces.

The design also considers the maintenance of the machine: its high autonomy and intuitive interface saves operators time.

This design was recognised at one of the world’s most celebrated and valued design competitions when Nespresso Momento won the iF Design Award in 2019.

Highly Flexible Payment Solutions

Different businesses have different needs in terms of coffee set-ups. In addition to the modular elements that can adapt to any office space, the Nespresso Momento range includes flexible payment solutions that make it possible for any business to control the payment process (from ordering capsules to collecting funds).

There are four configurations to answer all office needs: a free option without any payment system, an online option for cashless payment with ApplePay, SamsungPay, Mastercard or Visa credit card*, an offline option for payment with a badge (to be recharged), and an open option for cashless and/or badge and/or coiner.

Nespresso Momento: Environmentally Conscious

Machines also play an important role Nespresso’s commitment to environmental preservation and the Nespresso Momento range was built with sustainability at its core.

With long-lasting components and easily repairable or changeable elements, recyclable packaging, and settings to preserve both water and energy, all steps have been taken to minimise the system’s environmental impact. Employees can therefore enjoy a delicious cup of coffee with the knowledge that it has been crafted with Nespresso’s Positive Cup principles in mind.

Nespresso believes in building strong and resilient coffee-farming communities through its AAA Sustainable Quality™ Programme and is committed to making a positive impact with every cup of coffee, starting with the sourcing of beans.

More than 150,000 farmers in 18 countries participate in the programme, ensuring that coffee production is environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable and more than 90% of the coffee that Nespresso buys comes through the programme.

Nespresso is working to bring more farmers in more countries around the world on board, intending to source 100% of the permanent range of coffees through the AAA Programme by 2030.

The Nespresso Momento system brings people together over a cup of coffee, enhancing interactions in the office and forging more meaningful relationships. That is why it is the coffee solution for today’s workplaces.

Intuitive Technology

Equipped with cutting-edge technology reflective of the increasingly connected world we live in, the Nespresso Momento system is the most intuitive machine in the Nespresso Professional range to date.

Given people’s ever-expanding coffee preferences, the machine recommends the optimal cup length and provides information on the aromatic coffee notes and intensity for all 13 coffees in the Nespresso Professional range.

The new Americano recipe now meets the desire for longer, milder cups, ensuring everyone will find the right coffee for themselves and their office.

prebiotic coffee market
FMI logo

NEWARK, Del, USA – The global prebiotic coffee market size is forecast to experience substantial growth over the next decade, driven by a rising focus on gut health and consumer preference for functional beverages.

According to recent market research by Future Market Insights Global and Consulting Pvt. Ltd., the prebiotic coffee industry is expected to grow from USD 110.3 million in 2024 to USD 229.5 million by 2034, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.7%.

Understanding the Prebiotic Coffee Market

Prebiotic coffee, a fusion of traditional coffee with health-enhancing prebiotics, has gained popularity among health-conscious coffee lovers.

This innovation caters to consumers who are looking for ways to improve digestive health while enjoying their daily coffee. The global trend of increasing awareness about gut health is a major factor contributing to the projected growth.

Market Drivers and Trends

The amalgamation of coffee and prebiotics has created a new wave of demand among health-conscious consumers, leading to substantial market growth.

As more people become aware of the health benefits of prebiotic coffee, including improved digestion and overall wellness, manufacturers are focusing on product innovations to attract a wider audience.

Leading players are adding novel prebiotic strains that can survive the brewing process, offering additional health benefits without altering the taste profile that coffee lovers expect.

Moreover, the rise of start-ups focusing on functional coffee blends has contributed to the growing consumer base, with products targeting both gut health and taste preferences.

Key Takeaways from the Prebiotic Coffee Market

  • The prebiotic coffee market in the United States is projected to experience a CAGR of 3.2% through 2034.
  • The Germany prebiotic coffee market is estimated to demonstrate a CAGR of 4.1% through 2034.
  • The prebiotic coffee market in China is anticipated to see a CAGR of 2.4% from 2024 to 2034.
  • Japan’s prebiotic coffee market is projected to showcase a CAGR of 5.0% through 2034.

“Consumers today are more focused on their overall health, particularly gut health, which has driven the demand for prebiotic coffee”. says Nandini Roy Choudhury, Client Partner at Future Market Insights.

Prominent Drivers of the Market

  • Rising Health Awareness: Consumers are increasingly seeking functional foods and beverages that offer health benefits. Prebiotic coffee, known for promoting gut health by supporting beneficial gut bacteria, appeals to health-conscious individuals. This trend is especially prominent as people prioritize digestive health and overall well-being.
  • Growing Demand for Functional Beverages: The global demand for functional beverages that offer added health benefits beyond basic nutrition has surged. Prebiotic coffee fits within this trend, as it combines the traditional benefits of coffee (like caffeine for energy) with gut health benefits, offering more value to consumers.
  • Increased Focus on Gut Health: Scientific studies have highlighted the importance of gut health for immunity, mood regulation, and even weight management. Prebiotic ingredients, such as chicory root or inulin added to coffee, are gaining popularity as consumers seek products that improve digestion and foster a healthy gut microbiome.
  • Innovation in Coffee Products: The coffee industry has seen a wave of innovation, with new formulations catering to different consumer needs, such as organic, plant-based, and functional ingredients. Prebiotic coffee is part of this innovation, offering a unique twist on traditional coffee by enhancing its health benefits.
  • Sustainability and Natural Ingredients: Consumers are increasingly favoring products that are eco-friendly and made with natural ingredients. Prebiotic coffee, often marketed as using sustainably sourced coffee beans and plant-based prebiotics, aligns with consumer preferences for environmentally conscious and natural products.

Challenges Faced by the Prebiotic Coffee Market

  • Consumer Awareness: Prebiotic coffee is a niche product, and many consumers may not be familiar with the benefits of prebiotics or the concept of combining them with coffee. Educating consumers and building awareness can be a significant hurdle.
  • Taste and Quality: Integrating prebiotics into coffee without altering its taste or quality is crucial. Some prebiotics might affect the flavor or texture of coffee, which could be a deterrent for coffee enthusiasts.
  • Market Competition: The coffee market is highly competitive with numerous established brands. Prebiotic coffee has to compete with both traditional coffee and other functional beverages that offer health benefits.
  • Regulatory Issues: The addition of prebiotics to coffee may face regulatory scrutiny. Ensuring that all claims are substantiated and compliant with food and beverage regulations can be a complex process.
  • Cost of Production: Incorporating prebiotics can increase production costs. This can impact the retail price of prebiotic coffee, potentially making it less competitive compared to regular coffee.
