The province has 86 coffee production and processing facilities with a total capacity of 11,800 tons per year. Currently, coffee processing facilities in the area are promoting deep processing, focusing on specialty coffee and roasted and ground coffee to increase the value of coffee. At the same time, many businesses have also shifted towards exporting deeply processed coffee, instead of just exporting green coffee beans as they do now.
