Ukraine’s imports of roasted, non-decaffeinated coffee continued to expand during the first eight months of 2026, reflecting sustained consumer demand and the ongoing development of the domestic coffee market. Between January and August 2026, total imports reached €115.15 million, representing a 2.5% increase compared to the same period in 2025. Poland remained Ukraine’s largest supplier of roasted coffee, exporting €35.38 million and accounting for 30.72% of total imports. Germany strengthened its position in second place, with exports rising by 4.57% to €30.98 million, increasing its market share to 26.9%. Italy ranked third among suppliers, with exports totaling €22.18 million. However, Italian shipments declined by 9.71% compared to the same period of 2025, reducing Italy’s market share to 19.26%. Despite this decrease, Italy remained one of the key players in Ukraine’s coffee import market and retained a substantial presence in the premium coffee segment. Among the fastest-growing suppliers, Bulgaria recorded particularly strong growth, with exports surging by 73.9% to €6.21 million, raising its market share to 5.4%. France also posted remarkable results, increasing shipments by 66.6% to €2.40 million, while Turkey expanded exports by 62.04% to €684,201.  Overall, Ukraine’s roasted coffee import market in the first eight months of 2026 demonstrated continued growth and diversification. While Poland and Germany consolidated their leading positions, Italy maintained a significant presence despite lower export volumes, and several emerging suppliers, particularly Bulgaria, France, and Turkey, continued to expand their footprint in the market.
