Indonesia is the world's fourth-largest coffee producer, supplying both Arabica and Robusta green coffee beans to importers, roasters, and traders in more than 60 countries. This guide covers origins, export ports, MOQ structures, certification options, and how to verify an Indonesian green coffee supplier.
Indonesia produces coffee across multiple islands, each with distinct altitude, soil, climate, and processing traditions. Arabica accounts for roughly 25–30% of total production; Robusta makes up the majority.

Green coffee is exported FOB from five main ports depending on the origin of the beans:
Before contacting a supplier, clarify: origin (Arabica or Robusta, which region), grade (Grade 1 or Grade 2), processing method (wet-hulled, full wash, natural, honey), screen size, certification needs, volume per order, destination port, and target shipment date.
Most verified Indonesian green coffee exporters offer cupping samples (typically 200g to 10 kg) before an order. Request a sample, cup it against your standard, and confirm SCA score and defect count before committing.
A reliable Indonesian green coffee supplier should be able to provide: PT/CV company registration, active export license (NIE), warehouse and processing facility photos, sample shipment records (B/L, packing list), and a track record of FCL or LCL exports.
Green coffee availability changes by season. Ask for a current lot list showing: lot code, origin, harvest year, process, SCA score, moisture content, screen size, available volume, and price indication. Current lot lists are standard practice among professional exporters.
A formal FOB quotation should state: origin, grade, process, screen, moisture, packaging (jute with GrainPro or kraft bags), price per kg FOB, departure port, and shipment window. Confirm all variables in writing before issuance of the Proforma Invoice.
