IELTS Task 1 - Tables give information about sales of fairtrade-labelled coffee and bananas in 1999 and 2004 in five European countries

Given are two tables providing a comparison of Fairtrade-labelled coffee and bananas sold in five distinct countries, namely the UK, Switzerland, Denmark, Belgium and Sweden in 1999 and 2004.

It is evident from the information provided that sales of coffee witnessed an upward trend in all studied countries. While the residents of Switzerland were the most fond of coffee in 1999 by spending three million euros on it, twice that of in the UK, the popularity of coffee reached its highest level at 20 million euros in the UK in 2004. As a result, Switzerland ranked on the second place with sales roughly one third of the UK. Moreover, the expenditure on coffee remained roughly unchanged in Denmark, Belgium and Sweden.

Moving on to the next table, it can be seen that Switzerland ranked on the first place in sales of bananas in both years by approximately a three-fold increase in 2004, starting from 15 million euros in 1999. In addition, the consumption of banana climbed in the UK and Belgium, whereas the Swedish and the Danish lost their interest in banana with spending approximately one million euros each.

Overall, the Swiss and the Britons tend to spend more on banana and coffee, respectively, while there is roughly no difference in sales of banana and coffee in other countries studied.
