Data Analyst: Why Indonesia is Called the World Charcoal King?

This research, led by a data analyst, looks into why Indonesia is known as the “world charcoal king.” The study uses data to understand why Indonesia is so important in the global charcoal market. By checking how much charcoal Indonesia makes, how much is sent to other countries, and how much of the market Indonesia controls, the study tries to explain why Indonesia is a major player in making and selling charcoal worldwide.

Moreover, according to data from Volza, we will show how many coconut charcoal briquettes are shipped in 2023.

According to Volza’s Global Import data, coconut charcoal briquettes imported from Indonesia were 5.7 thousand shipments, brought in by 938 importers worldwide from 193 suppliers in Indonesia. Looking at this data, it seems there might be more Indonesian suppliers that are not counted by Volza. These 938 importers are mostly from the Middle East and Europe, some working with Indonesian suppliers through contracts, and some being new importers. This data reveals the significant number of coconut charcoal briquette suppliers in Indonesia. Additional information from Chat GPT indicates that Indonesia likely contributes to over 50% of global coconut charcoal briquettes exports
