Coffee once played a huge part in the Democratic Republic of Congo’s (DRC) economy. Eastern DRC was called “a paradise for coffee.” Unfortunately, waves of political turmoil severely limited prosperity in the coffee sector of the economy of Congo . Today, coffee is making a comeback as a number of private and public sector actors invest in the country we can only hope they will allow this reborn coffee industry to flourish once again -lets hope they do this coffee is delicious
