Kenyan coffee · International trade01 06

Choose a grade by specification, then evaluate the lot.

Kenyan grade names provide a useful first filter, but they do not replace a current specification sheet or sample. Buyers should establish screen-size distribution, defect tolerance, moisture, preparation, process, intended use, and destination requirements before comparing offers.

The indicative monthly capacities supplied in the company brief are planning references only. They are not guaranteed stock or shipment commitments. The trade desk confirms current availability and exact lot information before an offer is prepared.
