Qualitative analysis uncovers that eco-friendly packaging improves quality and boosts market penetration for coffee exporters.
Coffee exporters in East African Highlands are facing challenges related to quality preservation and market penetration rates of their products. A qualitative research approach was employed, involving interviews with 30 coffee exporters in the East African Highlands, including both large and small-scale producers. The analysis revealed that eco-friendly packaging significantly improved coffee quality by reducing contamination and extending shelf life. Market penetration rates increased by approximately 25% among participants who adopted these innovations. Eco-friendly packaging not only enhances the quality of exported coffee but also boosts market acceptance, thereby improving export performance in Ethiopia's coffee industry. Coffee exporters are encouraged to adopt eco-friendly packaging solutions to ensure consistent product quality and enhance their market presence.
