The publication includes an insightful analysis of volume (M liters) and growth (Y-o-Y) trends, consumer behavior, packaging trends, leading players and distribution trends withinLatin American Hot Coffee market. The analysis of the aforementioned trends has been done across seventeen individual countries in Latin America: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, and Venezuela.

Economic Environment of Latin America

Latin America comprises of a total of twenty countries including ten republics of South America, six republics of Central America, Mexico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Haiti. History of Latin America’s economy can be based at the three decades after World War II, when it experienced a blooming increasing in GDP, growing at around 5%. However, the weakness of its economic structure was revealed in the crisis of the 1980s. This led to various reforms in economic structure in order to come with a more stable economy which will thrive and make it significant in international arena.

This proved useful as Latin America went through a steady growth coming into the 21st century with average annual growth of 4.2% from 2004 to 2013. However the bright sunlight seems to be fading quickly, as Latin America is getting trapped in the darkness of recession. Latin American Economy has went through a near free fall kind of experience, with contraction in Q3’15 and Q4’15 being quoted as the sharpest fall in last six years. The overall GDP of the region is estimated to have decreased 1.2% y-o-y in Q1’16 suggesting overall weakness in economy. One of the many reasons for this downfall was the dramatic drop in commodities price, which resulted in sharp decline in export revenues of commodity-driven Latin American economy. Not only this, high inflation is seen persisting this year with a projected inflation of at 24.3% at the end of 2016. However all these data does not provide a complete picture as the appalling deterioration of some countries masks the fact that other countries are still going up the ladder.

The three pillars that form the majority of region’s GDP i.e. Brazil, Ecuador and Venezuela have been shaken. Brazil, the region’s largest economy, is experiencing its deepest recession since the 1930s. Ecuador is also suffering an economic breakdown due to earthquake in April’16. And lastly Venezuela seems to be engrained in profound political and economic crisis and there is no indication for this crisis to be over anytime in the near future. Meanwhile, in Mexico, economic activity is on the up but at a very slow rate. Colombia’s economy, though not at the heights where it used to be once, is relatively stable. Peru as a result of its business-friendly economic policy framework is on a growth cycle moving up at the top of its potential. But the impact of economic downfall of the major countries is so severe that recession is expected to deepen this year. As per recent analysis, the region’s economy will contract 0.4% this year, which, if true will lead to the first incident when Latin America has registered two consecutive years of negative growth after 1982 and 1983.
