The tables illustrate the
revenue
generated from Fairtrade-labelled coffee
and bananas
in 1999 and 2004 across five
European countries: the UK
, Switzerland
, Denmark
, Belgium, and Sweden.
It is evident that coffee
sales figures increased in all five
countries from 1999 to 2004. However
, banana purchases only rose in three out of the five
nations. By 2004, the UK
had the highest revenue
for both coffee
and bananas
.
In 1999, consumers in the UK
, Switzerland
, and Denmark
spent 1.5 million
, 3 million
, and 1.8 million
euros
, respectively, on coffee
. Five
years later, these amounts had grown substantially, with the UK
reaching 20 million
euros
, Switzerland
6 million
euros
, and Denmark
2 million
euros
. In contrast
, coffee
revenue
in Belgium and Sweden was comparatively lower, with each country reporting no more than 1 million
euros
in 1999, which doubled to 2 million
euros
by 2004. While
coffee
purchases increased across the board, the pattern for bananas
was different. The UK
, Switzerland
, and Denmark
saw their banana revenues rise between 1999 and 2004, but Belgium and Sweden experienced a decrease during the same period.
The UK
led in earnings for both products in both years, except for Switzerland
's coffee
revenue
in 1999, which was higher. In 1999, the UK
generated 1.5 million
euros
from coffee
and 15 million
euros
from bananas
. By 2004, these figures had surged to 20 million
euros
for coffee
and 47 million
euros
for bananas
, making the UK
the top earner among the five
countries. Additionally
, the increase in coffee
revenues in the UK
was the most dramatic, with 2004 figures more than ten times higher than those in 1999.Submitted by 645119931 on
