Seeya Coffee, a specialty coffee brand from South China’s Hainan province, turned heads when it made its international exhibition debut at the Global Yeongdo Coffee Festival in Busan, South Korea, on May 15-17.<\/p>\n

The brand was recommended by the Chinese Consulate General in Busan and received a special invitation from the festival organizers.<\/p>\n

Zhang Haokeng, chairman of the Hainan Ruize Group, which produces the coffee, led the delegation to South Korea. The trip signals the company’s ambition to take Hainan coffee to the global stage, with the slogan of “Hainan Coffee, World Flavor”.<\/p>\n

At the festival, Seeya Coffee displayed two of its main products, highlighting the craft and innovation behind the province’s coffee industry.<\/p>\n

The brand focuses on developing China’s Robusta coffee as a premium product, and it’s positioning itself as a “specialty cultural tourism coffee brand”.<\/p>\n

Its business model combines high-end cafe operations, full-on coffee-and-travel experiences and branded merchandise \u2014 all aimed at transforming Hainan coffee from being an agricultural commodity into a cultural calling card.<\/p>\n

“We hope Seeya Coffee can show the world how Hainan’s coffee industry has grown and evolved,” a company spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

“A single cup of coffee can tell the story of Hainan’s energy and creativity. This appearance at an international exhibition is an important step for Hainan coffee \u2014 from building roots at home to joining the global conversation,” the spokesperson added.<\/p>\n

Hainan lies at the very heart of China’s Robusta coffee-growing region. The island’s volcanic soil and tropical climate produce coffee with a distinct flavor profile found nowhere else in the country.<\/p>\n

In recent years, Hainan’s coffee industry has moved quickly toward premiumization and brand building, extending its supply chain and increasing the value of its products.<\/p>\n

The team said that the Busan debut laid the groundwork for Hainan coffee to reach new international markets and raise its global profile \u2014 and offered a model for other Chinese agricultural products seeking a place on the world stage.<\/p>\n
