Coffee
Green coffee for the roasting, importing and food manufacturing trade.
01 — Overview
Coffee is a specification-led commodity. Buyers are precise about species, screen size, defect count, moisture and processing method, and a contract is only as good as the consistency behind it.
AM INDIA approaches coffee as a green commodity trade: understanding the exact specification a buyer works to, identifying a sourcing route capable of meeting it, and coordinating the quality evidence and documentation that allow the contract to be executed with confidence.
02 — Built for
The specification and documentation set differ by buyer type. This platform is structured to serve:
- Roasters
- Green coffee importers
- Food manufacturers
- Distributors
- Wholesalers
03 — Sourcing
Sourcing routes are identified against the buyer's written specification rather than offered from a fixed list, so the species, preparation and volume are matched to the requirement.
04 — Quality
Sample approval before shipment, with inspection and analysis arranged through independent third parties where the contract requires it.
05 — Indicative specifications
