Hi everyone,
I want to start a café and roastry in Nanjing, China with my wife, but we're not too sure how to go about finding a supplier for green Arabica beans. So my questions is can you do business with the growers directly or should we try find a green coffee bean importer in China?

I know there are arabica growers in Viet Nam, although a Chinese friend recently told me there is very little coffee culture in China at present.

Yea, we've been researching coffee trends in China for a while now, and generally speaking there is very little at present. However, there has been quite an increase in botique cafes in the major cities, although they tend to open from lunch and close around around 9-10pm. Also, they tend to serve wine and beer and operate much like a small bar.
