In the contemporary global coffee industry, Papua New Guinea is wholly unique both in how coffee is harvested and exported
from the country. While there are some estates and plantations, most coffee production comes from smallholder farmers,
each with around 1–2 hectares of land called “gardens” on which they grow small amounts of coffee along with whatever else
a family or community might need for use or sale.Sourcing coffee in Papua New Guinea poses unique logistical, cultural, and
linguistic challenges. The country’s many indigenous populations are often very distinct from one another in terms of custom
and language, and individual communities might comprise only a few hundred people, making communication and the
cultural sensitivity required to do business here more difficult than in other coffee-growing regions. Less than 10 percent of the
population is connected to or uses the Internet for communications, and there are roughly 55 telephones (both fixed-line and
cellular) for every 100 people.
