How will this affect the Russian shelves

Kirill Seleznev, an expert on the stock market of Grada Capital, on June 26 allowed a 10-20% decrease in coffee prices in the world by the end of this year. According to him, the key reason for the reduction in the cost of the product was the statements of coffee producers from Brazil about their expectation of favorable weather conditions. In addition, last year's increase in the price of the drink significantly reduced its availability, which led to a decrease in demand.
