NEW YORK, NY -- (MARKET WIRE) -- Oct 19, 2011 -- Coffee companies have posted remarkable earnings in recent quarters on record high coffee prices. With the supply picture brightening, and prices sliding, coffee stocks are finally slowing down, however. The Bedford Report examines the outlook for companies in the Coffee Sector and provides investment research on Coffee Holding Co. Inc. (NASDAQ: JVA) and Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. (NASDAQ: GMCR). Access to the full company reports can be found at:

Coffee prices are set to remain high, as farmers' increased maintenance and fertilizer use will not boost production enough to match growing demand. The International Coffee Organization estimates that global coffee consumption rose 2.4 percent to a record 134.0 million 60-kg bags in 2010, while world 2010/11 coffee output is forecast at 133 million 60-kg bags.

Several coffee companies are raising prices to offset surging costs. Recent earnings reports show that boosting prices has done little to cut demand (so far).
