Australia Coffee Market to Grow with a CAGR of 5.80% through 2030

The Australia Coffee Market is driven by deep-rooted café culture, soaring demand for specialty and ethically sourced beans, booming RTD and alternative formats, and rapid growth of online and direct-to-consumer sales channels. 

According to TechSci Research report, “Australia Coffee Market – By Region, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F”, the Australia Coffee Market stood at USD 1.49 Billion in 2024 and is anticipated to grow USD 2.09 Billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 5.80% during forecast period. The Australia coffee market is a dynamic and culturally rich sector shaped by a deep-rooted appreciation for high-quality coffee experiences. Unlike many global markets where instant or chain-based coffee consumption dominates, Australia’s market has matured around independent cafés, artisanal roasters, and specialty brews. The country’s coffee culture emphasizes quality, customization, and social engagement, making café visits a lifestyle activity rather than a mere caffeine fix. This sophisticated coffee culture is particularly evident in urban centers such as Sydney, Melbourne, and Canberra, where baristas are regarded as skilled artisans and coffee preparation is treated with precision and pride. The emphasis on craftsmanship and innovation has given rise to globally influential practices such as the flat white and third-wave coffee, placing Australia among the leading nations in specialty coffee innovation.

Australian consumers are increasingly aware of the environmental and social impact of their purchases, prompting many to choose products with Fairtrade, Rainforest Alliance, or organic certifications. This trend is further supported by roasters who establish direct relationships with farmers and cooperatives, enabling traceability and transparency from bean to cup. Consumers are no longer satisfied with just good flavor—they want to know the story behind their coffee, including its origin, processing method, and farming practices. This demand for traceability has led to a rise in storytelling through packaging and digital platforms, allowing brands to connect with their customers on a deeper level and justify premium pricing.

Alongside home brewing, there is a growing emphasis on convenience and functional innovation, reflected in the rising popularity of ready-to-drink (RTD) coffee formats and plant-based milk options. RTD beverages such as cold brews, bottled lattes, and nitro coffees are seeing increased demand, particularly among younger consumers and busy professionals who seek convenience without sacrificing quality. Furthermore, the surge in plant-based diets has led to widespread availability of alternatives like oat, almond, and soy milk in cafés, all tailored for barista-style steaming.
