In a recent F&B establishments study done in USA, one out of every two adult Americans do not drink coffee and/or do not like the taste of it. Closer to home, right here in Singapore, www.statista.com reported that while there are increase in cafes, chain coffee shops and specialty coffee houses in recent years, the coffee consumption has been decreasing since 2016.
