What it is

Supply Watch is import tracking for the Saudi coffee category. It reads official trade statistics for coffee, tea and cocoa by category and country of origin, and shows what is entering the Kingdom, from where, and how fast that is changing: one of the earliest public signs of where demand is heading.

Origin mix
Which countries supply each category, and how that is shifting.

Questions, answered

Can Supply Watch show which company imported what?
No. Official statistics are published by category and country of origin, not by importer, so it reads the whole market's supply.
How current is the import data?
As current as the latest official release, which follows the period it covers. It is an early signal, not a real-time one.
Why do imports matter to a coffee chain?
Imports move before menus. Rising volumes tell procurement where costs are going and product teams what the market will serve next.
Does Supply Watch connect to other products?
Yes. When Trend Watch launches, import movements become one of its three evidence sources, alongside social content and reviews.
What exactly does Supply Watch cover?
Official trade statistics for coffee, tea and cocoa, by product category and country of origin, with volume and value, updated with each official release.
