Brazil, Colombia, Central America, Mexico, USA (Hawaii), Ethiopia, Kenya, Yemen, Sumatra, Indonesia, The Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam, and India all grow, export and import coffee from each other. Brazil grows the most, USA imports the most. Who imports or exports the most, and from whom, beyond that, is up to varying markets and demand.
Brazil, Colombia, Central America, Mexico, USA, Ethiopia, Kenya, Yemen, and Sumatra all grow Arabica bean coffee. Arabica bean coffee is the most popular. It is grown the most and is used in the finer coffee varietals and gourmet blends.
Indonesia, The Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam, India and Ethiopia, Kenya, Yemen, and Sumatra also grow Robusto. Robusto is a hardier, harsher bean that has more caffeine and is often used for mixing with arabica to make coffee flavor fuller for the less expensive blends.

Africa is not one homogeneous entity. It is comprised of many sovereign nations. You should pick the country that grows the beans you are interested in buying then contact their embassy. I'm a coffeeholic and personally I prefer Kenyan. It's fantastic, very rich. Embassies usually have a commerce and trade division who can give you the information you need.
