The cultivation of the coffee plant was in its infancy in the Republic of Honduras at the end of the 19th century. While there were numerous coffee plantations at the time, they were only small. The soil, climate, and conditions in Honduras are the same as those of Guatemala, Nicaragua, or Costa Rica. The downfall was the lack of transportation and no exportation of coffee from Honduras in which led to the coffee being mostly sold domestically.

Honduras in Central America which is bordered by Mexico to the north and Colombia to the southeast is now currently the the third largest producer in Latin America. Honduras currently ranks sixth globally in coffee exports measured by volume. The coffee production in Honduras has played a major role in the country’s history and is a vital source for the Honduran economy and in 2011, the country became Central America‘s top producer of coffee. Honduras coffee is sitting approximately 4% in the world coffee market and amongst coffee, other major agrictultural exports is Bananas & pineapples.

Honduras typical harvest season is between November through to April and is generally available from May.
