It was in the golden soil of Chikmagalur that a traditional family owned a few acres of
coffee estates, which yielded rich coffee beans. Soon Amalgamated Bean Coffee Trading
Company Limited, popularly known as Coffee Day was formed. With a rich coffee
growing tradition since 1875 behind it coupled with the opportunity that arose with the
deregulation of the coffee board in the early nineties, Coffee Day began exporting coffee
to the connoisseurs across USA, Europe & Japan. In the calendar year 2000, Coffee Day
exported more than 27000 tonnes of coffee valued at US$ 60 m to these countries and,
for the second time in its short career of 7 years retained the position as the largest coffee
exporter of India.
Coffee Day has a wide and professional network in the major coffee growing areas of the
country comprising over 48 agents and 50 collecting depots. Coffee Day's two curing
works at Chikmagalur and Hassan cure over 70,000 tons of coffee per annum, the
largest in the country.

Competitors :
Barista: Originally known as Barista, this coffeehouse chain in India was taken over by
Lavazza in 2007 and since then is known as Barista Lavazza. Barista was the fastest brand
to make it to the list of Super brands and is ranked among the top 50 phenomena that
changed India. With a menu that ranges over Mojitos, frappes, Lemonades, Ice teas, cold
and hot coffee, sandwiches and wraps, salads, breakfast items, pastas, pizzas, soups,indulgent cakes, muffins, juices and snacks; one does have a tough time categorizing it as
just another coffee shop.
Costa Coffee: The second largest after Starbucks, Costa Coffee has about 1700 stores
across 28 countries. Though it doesn't come as close to Starbucks in terms of numbers, it
does better than other competitors. Opened in 1971 in UK by Italian brothers Sergio and
Bruno Costa, it specializes in Italian coffee. Their biggest branch is in Dubai and can house
about 320 people at one time.
Starbucks: With over 19,555 stores in 58 countries, no one serves bigger! The second
largest coffee house has about 1700 stores! Almost a household name for coffee lovers all
over, Starbucks is all determined to have your eyes opened. Based in Seattle, Washington,
Starbucks began with selling high quality coffee beans and equipments but now serves a
wide range of products which include brewed coffee, espresso based hot drinks, hot and
cold drinks, coffee beans, snacks, pastries, sandwiches and items that include mugs and
tumblers. To know the impact, it is estimated that Starbucks sells close to 4 billion cups of

CAFE Coffee Day (CCD) wants to become a global brand after its success in India. By 2012-13,
CCD plans to be a big global chain both with organic growth and acquisitions. By the end of thisyear it will have 900 cafes and 2,500 by 2012-13. CCD already has its cafes in Austria and
Pakistan and wants to set up cafes in Poland, Russia, Hungary, Dubai, Kuwait, China and Saudi
Arabia. The company has received investment from Darby Templeton and Deutsche Bank to
the tune of $100 million for expanding its network. In August 2008, CCD announced that
leading international brand consultant Landor will help it to reinvigorate its brand and take it
to the next level. Only the brand name and logo saying 'A lot can happen over coffee' will
remain the same. CCD will now focus more on projecting a feeling of togetherness (friendship,
romance or office meeting in an informal environment) and celebration which are critical core
values. Accordingly the cafe ambience, the look and feel inside will be changed.
