Brazil Exports 2.65m 60-kg Bags Green Coffee in May

June 9, 2014

Brazil exported 2.65 million 60-kg bags of green coffee in May, less than the 2.73 million bags shipped in April, the Council of Green Coffee Exporters said Monday.

Even with drought damaging the crop, which is entering the peak-harvest period, Cecafe said recently that Brazil will likely increase coffee exports by 6 percent this year because of plentiful stocks.
