The Irish coffee market has shown meteoric growth in the out of home market over the last five years and shows no signs of slowing down. With the main driver of change being convenience and choice. Historically, the Irish market has been dominated by dark roast coffees but we’re now seeing varying roast profiles that cater to a wider audience. But with more choice comes greater pressure on operators, as consumers are now spoilt for choice and can purchase a good coffee anywhere. Whether that’s in a café or a convenience store - this level of convenience is storming the Irish market.

These trends are reflected in our latest bespoke insight in to the coffee buying and drinking behaviours of 1,000 Irish coffee drinkers. Take a look at the highlights.
