Flava Coffee, a Dubai-based producer of specialty roasted coffee, unique for its signature blends and coffee brewing equipment, has forayed into the UAE at a time when the food and beverage (F&B) market is experiencing robust growth. The combined coffee sales revenue in the GCC is expected to reach US$6.84 billion in 2024
Revenue generated in supermarkets and convenience stores in the coffee market in the GCC amounts to US$2.43 billion in 2024, according to Statista, a global market intelligence provider. Revenue generated in restaurants and cafes amounts to US$4.40 billion in 2024. Combined revenue amounts to USD 6.84 billion in 2024
The hotel, restaurant, and cafe (HoReCa) sector, one of the key drivers of the food and beverage (F&B) industry, has enhanced the coffee culture, pushed by large demand from consumers, both local and international, for the beverage. More than 27,000 restaurants and cafes and another 1,200 hotels are operational across the country, with Dubai hosting more than half of the total. To cater to such a large diaspora of coffee consumers, Flava Coffee has crafted distinct coffee products in tune with the palates of coffee enthusiasts who want to savor the experience of drinking rich and stimulating beverages

As a one-stop producer of roasted coffee, Flava Coffee delivers whole beans, ground coffee, drip bags, and capsules as single-serve options to B2B markets like hotels, restaurants, cafes, and businesses in the GCC. They also offer private labeling to coffee shops that are seeking to develop their brands. The expansion of the coffee industry is reflected in the growth of the roasted coffee market, whose revenue is soaring towards US$740 million (Dh2.71 billion) by the end of 2024, followed by an anticipated meteoric rise to US$813.50 million (Dh2.98 billion) in the next five years
