Coffee retail sales
The retail sales value for coffee products in Korea amounted to around 2.5 trillion South Korean won in 2018. The term ‘’coffee products’’ is used because there are various types of coffees sold in Korea, such as instant coffees and capsule coffees. Liquid coffees and coffee beverages containing milk were the bestsellers, accounting for more than 1.3 trillion South Korean won in sales. Coffee mixes, where sugar and cream are packaged together with instant coffee, came in second with around 873 billion South Korean won in sales. The products of Dongsuh Foods were by far the most popular in 2018.
