as the coffee sector is a significant water consumer and aims to enhance coffee
quality, positively impacting market value.
Shouq BinRedha, Exhibition Manager of World of Coffee Dubai 2024 said: “We
are delighted to organise a series of workshops in conjunction with the
upcoming World of Coffee Dubai 2024. The exhibition will set an ideal platform
for international industry experts to participate and share their insights and
experiences to attain our objective of promoting sustainability within the
coffee industry and it represents a comprehensive endeavour that begins in the
coffee fields to ends in the coffee cup. During the process we must meticulously
examine each step, commencing with environmentally conscious agricultural
practices in coffee cultivation. The journey continues through the roasting
process, where the intrinsic flavours of the coffee are preserved and extends to
packaging methods in a way that maintains the quality while minimising their
ecological footprint. The exhibition will focus on driving innovation in the
coffee industry and developing a roadmap for a more sustainable future for this
sector.”
The sustainable coffee movement prioritises eco-friendly farming methods,
including reduced pesticide and chemical fertiliser use, as well as growing
coffee under tree canopies to mimic natural forest conditions. This approach
enhances ecological balance, biodiversity, and coffee quality. Labels like 'Shade-
Grown Coffee' (grown under tree cover) and 'Direct-Trade Coffee' (sourced
directly from farmers) are used to promote such practices, ensuring fair
payment for farmers and high-quality beans for roasters and consumers.
World of Coffee Dubai 2024, a DXB Live initiative, focuses on enhancing
collaboration among key stakeholders to address pressing challenges, foster a
harmonious balance between profit, the environment, and societal well-being
while ensuring a coffee supply for current and future generations and shaping a
more sustainable coffee industry for future.
