The COVID-19 Analysis:                    

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic caused disruption in the coffee industry. The out-of-home coffee consumption decreased significantly due to growing number of countries adopting a full or partial lockdown to contain COVID-19 spread. Offices, coffee shops and restaurants remain shut in order to restrict the spread of coronavirus which reduced the consumption of coffee in the pandemic year 2020. Also, due to COVID-19 pandemic, the movement of farm laborers and migrant workers was limited by social distancing measures, lockdowns and travel restrictions which forced them to migrate to their hometowns thus reducing the overall labor supply in the farms during the harvest periods. Coffee bean picking is highly labor intensive activity involved in coffee making which was hampered due to shortage of labor, thus hampering the overall coffee production.
