</B>The Company respectfully advises the Staff that the line-item referenced in the comment does in fact include the 40% noncontrolling
interest in Generations Coffee Company, LLC (&ldquo;GCC&rdquo;). The use of &ldquo;Before Non-Controlling Interest&rdquo; is meant to
signify that the number presented (i.e. $867,677) is Net Income (Loss) <I>before</I> any adjustment is made for the noncontrolling interest.
For the Year Ended October 31, 2021, GCC had a net loss ($387,677, representing the 40% noncontrolling interest in GCC) which the Company
added back into the Company&rsquo;s Net Income calculation to arrive at &ldquo;Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Coffee Holding Co.,
Inc.&rdquo; of $1,255,354. The Company advises the Staff that in future SEC filings, the Company will rename the line-item referenced
in the Staff&rsquo;s comment to read &ldquo;Net Income (Loss) Before Adjustment for Non-Controlling Interest in Subsidiary.&rdquo;</FONT></P>
