The PNG Coffee Marketing Board was formed in May 1964 under the Coffee Marketing Board Ordinance, 1963. That Act was amended many times to suit the requirements of the industry and finally superseded by the Coffee Industry Act, 1976, under which the Coffee Industry Board was established in March 1977. The main function of the Board was to control and regulate the production, processing, marketing and export of coffee grown in PNG. In January 1987 the CIB was split into three autonomous bodies: Coffee Industry Board, Coffee Research Institute and Coffee Development Authority. These three bodies were re-united into a single body by the formation of the Coffee Industry Corporation in October 1990. The Corporation now (1998) consists of four Divisions all under the authority of the CIC's Board of Management : Industry Affairs Division (The old CIB), External Services Division (the old CDA), Coffee Research Institute and Corporate Services Division (new)
