http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/Colombian is the premier producer of high quality Arabica coffees, especially in wholesale quantities. But how much does Colombian coffee cost?
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/Cost depends on the current coffee market, the quality of the coffee and export costs.
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/A half-pound bag of ground coffee such as Aguila Roja in a Colombian grocery store will sell for around $2 (6,000 Colombian Pesos).
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/A one pound bag of Juan Valdez organic coffee as a coffee of single origin from a specific part of the Colombian Cafetero will sell for around $9 (27,000 Colombian pesos) in Colombia.
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/Unfortunately if you want to send via UPS it may cost as much as $100 for shipping of a kilogram of Colombian coffee!
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/However, you can buy wholesale coffee from Colombia and the price is attractive provided that you deal with a trusted supplier and exporter and deal in larger volumes.
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/Air Freight Coffee Colombia to the USA
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/If you are interested in mid-size shipments of organic green Colombian coffee air freight arranged by a supplier and exporter in Colombia can be cost efficient. The wholesale price of highest quality green organic coffee of origin in Colombia will run around $7 a pound.
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/Air freight Bogota to Houston will run about $1.25 a pound. Ten 60 kg bags (132 pounds each = 1,320 pounds will cost around $8.25 x 1,320 pounds = $10,890. This works out to $8.25 a pound.
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/The cost of basic green Colombian coffee is closer to $2 a pound which works out to $4,290 for ten 60 kg bags air freight Bogota to Houston.
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/Shipping Containers Full of Colombian Coffee
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/Large orders of wholesale Colombian green coffee are usually shipped by sea. Or suppliers in Colombia ship via Buenaventura on the Pacific coast or Cartagena on the Caribbean. Shipping containers are the most cost effective way to ship.
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/A 20 foot shipping container holds 18 tons of coffee in bags and 21 tons in bulk. Shippers say that coffee in bulk arrives in better condition than coffee in bags.
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/Special liners are used for bulk shipping of coffee. Shipping cost per pound is pennies on the dollar compared to air freight.
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/The most way to send is coffee by sea FOB which means that you employ a shipper to receive the shipment as it goes onto the boat and insure that it gets to you safe and sound.

http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/The price of regular coffee futures is quoted on the NYMEX during every business day. This is the base from which all others are derived.
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/If you want export quality Colombian coffee it will commonly cost a dollar to two more a pound than basic coffee beans. If you want organic, shade grown or coffee of a specific origin this is where the price moves from around $2 to around $7 a pound.
http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1672/how-much-does-colombian-coffee-cost/For StartersWe suggest that if you are interested in high quality Arabica coffee from Colombia that you try a 60 kg bag shipped by air freight. In November of 2015 Colombia changed its export laws making it easier to export smaller quantities of coffee.
