The market norms till the 1990's restricted the division's activities
mainly to processing of raw and monsooned coffee which had to be subsequently
pooled to the government-controlled Coffee Board of India; who marketed
the commodity. With winds of liberalization sweeping across the trade
regime, free sale of coffee both in the domestic and overseas market
was made legitimate for private players, and Aspinwall joined the
elite class of exporters of green & specialty coffee to the roasters
and traders across the globe.
