Without a proper costing system, coffee roasting business margins are extremely difficult to control.

What usually goes wrong

  • Green Bean Price Fluctuations

    Raw coffee bean prices are highly volatile depending on harvest season, quality, and international markets, making inventory valuation complex.

  • Multi-Stage Roasting Costing

    Roasting costs include fuel, electricity, labor, and machine depreciation that need to be allocated per batch or per kg of finished product.

  • Green Bean Lot Management

    Each green bean lot has different quality and price, so a lot-based costing system is needed for accurate COGS.

  • Coffee Bean and Roasting Inventory

    Stocks of raw green beans, roasted coffee, and packaged products need to be separated in the inventory system for accurate financial reports.
