- (1888PressRelease) February 12, 2013 - Mumbai, India - To highlight the tremendous potential of the Tea & Coffee sectors in India, Sentinel Exhibitions Asia P Ltd is organizing the World Tea & Coffee Expo 2013, ( http://www.worldteacoffeeexpo.com ) India's only trade show dedicated to the Hot Beverage sector at Bombay Exhibition Centre , Goregaon East, Mumbai, India from 15th - 17th Feb 2013.
The total branded Tea segment in India is currently valued at Rs 6000 crore and is expected to double in the next 5 years. The domestic coffee consumption too has been continuously growing at annual average rate of 6% and is largely on account of a thriving Independent upscale café culture. Domestic coffee outlets - which have a lot of appeal for the new generation - are set to double within next 3 years fuelled by the foray of global players such Starbucks and Dunkin' Donuts in India. Internationally, the market for branded tea and coffee in terms of revenue is expected to reach US $125 billion by 2017 as against US $69 billion in 2011 (estimated) signaling an annual growth of 10.9 % 2012 to 2017.
Says Priti Kapadia, Director, Sentinel Exhibitions Asia P Ltd, "Companies in the last decade have positioned tea and coffee as recreational products, which has proved beneficial in attracting younger population. Furthermore, the focus on high-protein, low-sugar diets is stimulating demand for green tea, ground coffee and artificial sweeteners, which have shown strong signs of promise over the past three years."
The World tea & Coffee Expo 2013 (WTCE 2013) [ http://www.worldteacoffeeexpo.com ] has a judicious mix of Indian & International Exhibitors.

In spite of the deteriorating global economic climate in the last few years, the hot beverage sector has remained resilient as improvements in transportation and the extension of the shelf life of products backed by continued product innovation and aggressive marketing initiatives is contributing to the growth of this industry. Some segments like premium and organic coffee and green/herbal tea have created an entirely new market." Adds Kapadia, "Rising consumer awareness about the health hazards of carbonated drinks is leading to a shift towards tea and coffee. Another major driver is surge in the health conscious population who prefer antioxidant property of tea or the instant energy of coffee."
The top two tea producing nations - China and India, collectively produce about 60% of total global tea output. India is the second-largest tea producer and consumer after China and fourth largest tea exporter after Kenya, China, and Sri Lanka. The key coffee producing and exporting nations are Brazil, Vietnam, Columbia, Indonesia, Ethiopia, and India, among others. Brazil is the world's largest producer, exporter and consumer of coffee
