Hello I'm Brazilian but I'm living in MD USA. I am willing to sell my family's coffee here in the US but I have lots of questions. To begin with,would it be better for us to bring our coffee, store it here and then sell it out in small quantities or try to sell the whole shipment at once?

If anybody has a clue or wants to discuss the issue ( it rhymes!!!) please let me know

Thank you

Dear Claudia! Green coffee in one hand is like cash money and in the other hand it is not so easy to sell, because of meny diffrent reasons, generally, any one who sell raw coffee or roast by him self, can be interested.therfore small 300 gr of free samples coded (crop, batch,cr..)to be given away, to potential buyers. prices of brasilian coffee in big quon'(pallet'n'up) are not so high, also depance what type of brasile? rio? minas? ( shouth\pergamino)what screen?(crivello) I think american market will preffer 17/18, deffects? process? (lavado/natoral/semi lavado?) good luck! Ram www.coffee-tech.com

Hi, I would like to send a convincing letter to a company in order to be their agent. The company is selling coffee machines. Can somebody send me some tips or send me a kind of sample letter?

Thank'you in advance, Marco

My wife and I are currently looking to import and we would be interested in knowing what you offer.We are a new company making our own place in the market.The problem is we do not Know much about varieties but we know what we like and this is how we base our decision on what we sell.
