    There is a reduced supply of coffee beans. Let’s say 30%. This requires that 30% of customers have to be priced out of the market.

    this is fiction writing. you are literally making that up

      What do you mean? There are globally less coffee beans available. Or do you mean the 30%? That’s just an arbitrary number, as I tried to make clear by writing “Let’s say …”.

        the price doesn’t need to change at all. if it does, it is a decision someone makes.

          Then you have more demand than supply because there is not enough coffee for everybody. This leads to people queueing and some people leaving without coffee.

            maybe. but you’re making up the story so you can tell any story you want.
