International Coffee Day is October 1 and FAS is brewing up excitement. Taiwan boasts a vibrant coffee culture and is home to one of the highest densities of coffee shops globally. Consumers are well-versed with single-origin specialty coffee and often prefer to buy, roast, grind, and brew their coffee at home. In July, FAS partnered with Taipei coffee shop chain, Zhanlu, to feature Hawaiian Kona coffee. Three Hawaiian coffee bean promotions were included in this multiplatform social media campaign to get everyone energized for specialty coffee. As a result of the promotion, Zhanlu coffee achieved $4,833 in actual sales and perked up interest in Taiwan on the origins of Hawaiian coffee.

Creating new export opportunities is a critical part of USDA’s efforts to boost revenue streams for U.S. producers and agribusinesses and generate economic prosperity in rural communities. Exports are a critical driver of economic progress across the United States and have direct benefits for U.S. agriculture. Agriculture Deputy Secretary Torres Small announced an additional $300 million available through the Regional Agricultural Promotion Program (RAPP) to help grow export markets for high quality American farm and food products around the world! “Access to international markets supports U.S. farmers at home and food security throughout the world,” said Deputy Secretary Torres Small. “USDA launched RAPP last year as part of the Biden-Harris Administration’s commitment to create more, new, and better markets for U.S. producers and agribusinesses, and we’ve seen tremendous interest, culminating in more than a billion dollars in proposals for the first $300 million round of RAPP funding earlier this year. Given the importance of exports in supporting farm income and rural economic development, we’re delighted to be able to make an additional $300 million available this year.” #AgInvestment #exports #trade Read more: https://lnkd.in/eHGf34rw For more information about RAPP, visit: https://lnkd.in/dpvenCwi
