In our investigation on the global coffee race, Robert Jones, Managing Director of Coffee Planetpointed to a turning point for the industry:

“We are entering a new era of coffee.”

Robert explained that Coca-Cola’s reconsideration of Costa Coffee shows even the biggest corporations must evolve or risk losing relevance.
He noted that Burgerizzr’s acquisition of Shuffle reflects how café culture is becoming mainstream, while the Keurig Dr Pepper–Peet’s merger represents a restructuring of the global value chain, reshaping sourcing and pricing.

For Robert, Dubai is no longer on the sidelines — it has become a leading global actor in specialty coffee, and bold moves like the Geisha purchase underscore this new reality.
His conclusion: this is not just disruption — it is a complete re-architecture of the coffee industry worldwide.

The Coffee Race: From Corporate Giants to Startups… Who Will Shape the Future?

The sale of Geisha coffee from the famed “Hacienda La Esmeralda” at the “Best of Panama 2025” auction was no ordinary event. A historic record was set when the washed Geisha fetched an unprecedented $30,204 per kilogram. Yet the bigger surprise was not the price itself, but the buyer: a Dubai-based startup, just one week old at the time, that stunned the industry by purchasing the entire 20-kilogram lot for a staggering $604,000. A dramatic scene that shook the markets and ignited debates among experts, investors, and coffee leaders worldwide.

And the shocks did not stop there. The sector was soon rattled by a string of announcements: “Coca-Cola” revealed it is considering the sale of “Costa Coffee”; “Burgerizzr” announced its acquisition of 60% of the café chain “Shuffle”; and a historic milestone was recorded with “Keurig Dr Pepper” acquiring “JDE Peet’s” for €15.7 billion. A whirlwind of events that disrupted the landscape and raised big questions about the future of coffee in Dubai and across the globe.

These developments prompted us at Qahwa World to open this file seriously, guided by the voices of seasoned leaders and pioneers in the coffee sector — people who combine boldness with credibility, and who know the market intimately. With them, we explored critical questions:

Are these events just a passing wave of headlines, or the signs of a long-term transformation?

How will Dubai and the region be impacted?

And what do these deals mean for producers, independent roasters, and young entrepreneurs?
