In 2023/24, coffee exports were 6.13 million bags valued at US$ 1.144 Billion in 2023/24. This was an increase of 6.33% in volume and 35.29% in value compared to FY 2022/23 when exports were 5.8 million bags valued at US$846 million.
Due to effective regulation by UCDA, coffee quality has greatly improved and this has resulted in high prices. Currently, farmers are earning the highest prices in 30 years. In FY2023/24, UCDA generated revenue of UGX 82.2 billion and Uganda Coffee is in high demand in global coffee markets for its quality.
With the current trajectory, the Coffee Roadmap target of 20 million 60 kg bags produced by 2030 is achievable. The roadmap signed by H.E President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni in 2017, set a target for foreign exchange earnings of US$ 1.5 billion annually from the US$ 20 million bags.
Uganda Coffee Development Authority is committed to working closely with all stakeholders to ensure a profitable and sustainable coffee industry.
