Market Growth Factors
The U.S. coffee market is driven by increasing demand for premium, specialty coffee products, and rising consumption of coffee by the millennial population, and the rapid proliferation of specialty coffee shops across the United States, according to the report. Ready-to-drink coffee is convenient and drives market growth. Consumers demand products with higher quality from sustainable sources, and independent roasters and third-wave coffee shops respond to these demands via supporting transparency, sustainability and direct trade.
Health conscious customers drive the market because demand increases for coffee with functional ingredients like probiotics and immune boosters, and for the use of milk alternatives like almond or oat milk. Sugar reduces, demand increases for clean-label, naturally-derived ingredients and this leads toward innovative products like cold brew, nitro coffee, and superfood functional beverages.
Consumers have greater control over preparation methods with technological innovation, such as app-controlled temperature, time and strength or machines focused on specific flavor. Single serve coffee systems have changed the nature of coffee preparation in the home with greater speed, consistency and convenience. This is due to advances in precision grinders, increases in extraction and flavor quality, and the growth of online retail and subscription services.
