Exposition exercise
The three charts above demonstrates the producing area of coffee, its major markets and the division of its profits.
South America produces 46%of the coffee worldwide, followed by Central American (19%), Asia (18%), and Africa (16%).
Oceania only takes up 1% of the total production, and Europ does not even appear in the chart.
However, when it comes to coffee consumption, European buyers occupies 44% of the world market, a porpotion which doubles the figure of the U.S. 8% goes to Japan and other countries share the rest 26%.
According to the third chart, over 50% of money flows into the pocktes of wholesalers whose companies are usually based in developed countries. Retailers take 25% of the profits while the rest---a mere 20%--- is split between producers and expoters.
In conclusion, it seems that the third world takes the role to coffee producer while rich countries are more often than not consumers and salers who garner a bigger share of profits.
