The Instituto Salvadoreño del Café (ISC) reported that 8,288 bags of salvadoran coffee are part of the certified inventories of the New York Coffee Exchange (NYSE), an international system that supports futures trading for the coffee bean. This presence reflects the participation of Salvadoran coffee in the global market and its compliance with the quality standards required for international trade.
New deliveries to the inventory system
The report also indicates that an additional 12,512 bags were recently delivered to the certified inventory system, contributing to an increase in the total volume available within this international storage and trade support mechanism.
With these additions, certified coffee inventories on the NYSE reached 553,379 60-kilogram bags, a figure higher than the 540,867 bags previously recorded.
This system serves as a backup for Arabica coffee futures trading, as the stored beans must meet specific quality standards before being accepted into the certified inventory.
Bags pending classification
In addition to the already certified bags, the report indicates that 113,326 bags are pending classification, a process by which it is verified whether the coffee meets the specifications required by the international market.
Only after this procedure can the product be formally integrated into the certified inventory system and used as collateral in exchange trading transactions.
Importance for the coffee sector
For El Salvador’s coffee sector, the presence of domestic coffee within these international inventories confirms that the beans produced in the country meet international quality standards and can participate in global trade mechanisms.
Salvadoran coffee, primarily of the Arabica variety, is recognized for its quality characteristics, allowing it to position itself in specialized markets and certification systems linked to international trade.
The Instituto Salvadoreño del Café (ISC) constantly monitors the global coffee market, including prices, inventories, and trends on major international exchanges, with the goal of providing information to the salvadoran coffee sector.
