On International Coffee Day, we support the local communities like Gympie who proudly roast & blend NESCAFÉ BLEND 43. Particularly in the midst of COVID lockdowns, research has shown that more Australian consumers are ever more wanting to support local.
In July of 2019, 44% of consumers said they try to buy locally grown food, and this rose to 48% after the December 2019 bushfires. With the COVID-19 crisis, now 52% of Australian consumers are trying to buy locally grown food*.
With NESCAFÉ BLEND 43 being roasted & blended right in our backyard in regional Queensland, we’re proud to be supporting local communities like Gympie. Learn more about NESCAFÉ BLEND 43’s local story here at www.nescafe.com/au/made-in-australia
