Thailand's specialty coffee market is growing at 15% annually, with premium coffee commanding 48% of the ฿28,000–30,000 billion market despite only 16% of volume. Thailand Coffee Fest 2026 (Sept 10–13, Bangkok) showcases this ecosystem, featuring 8 Thai coffee samples scoring 90+ cupping points. New-generation farmers are driving quality through scientific methods and premium cultivars (Geisha, Java, Typica, Bourbon). The event supports Thailand's hosting of World of Coffee Bangkok 2026—a key platform for SMEs and farmers to scale globally.
