1. The Number of Coffee Drinkers
Out of the sample size of 1088 participants, only 84 or 7.9% shared that they do not drink coffee. And more than 50% drink more than 2 cups of coffee daily.
Result: Coffee remains to be the dominant beverage in the office
Of the 84 people that are not drinking coffee:
- 26% is due to a medical reason
- 50% is based on preference (Tea Drinker)
- Another 24% is due to the low quality of coffee being served. (Potential to convert to coffee drinker)
For all the survey questions below, do note that the respond numbers are out of 1088 respondents from this survey.
2. Reasons people are not drinking coffee in the office
Of the 168 people that are not drinking coffee in the office:
- 56% is because of the preference of cafes’ quality coffee
- 25.6% is because of the low quality of coffee served.
Thus, better quality coffee can likely see more people drinking coffee in the office.
3. Office Options in the Office (interesting facts for all office coffee machine suppliers)
This office coffee survey is directed at a working crowd in Central Business District, it is surprising that only 38% shared that they have coffee machines in their offices (out of the 869 responses).

The majority of the offices, 42% is using Roast and Ground Coffee Machines while 34.8% is using a single-serve coffee maker such as Nespresso.
