IELTS task 1: 2 tables about sales of Fairtrade-labelled coffee and bananas

Please give me some feedback on this, this essay makes me struggle real hard.

"The two table demonstrate data about the amount of money spent on Fairtrade-labelled coffee and bananas of five European nations in 1999 and 2004.

Overall, both coffee and bananas showed a substantial increment in sales after the 5-year period. In addition, the UK was the biggest buyer of coffee and bananas in 2004, with Switzerland placed second.

In 1999, the amount of money spent on coffee was relatively low. Switzerland is the largest buyer of this Fairtrade product with 3 million euros spent while Denmark, UK, Belgium, and Sweden sales were at 1.8, 1.5, 1, 0.8 respectively. However, the year 2004 experienced a huge increment in coffee sales with UK became the largest buyer by spending 18.5 million more and Switzerland doubled their sales figure in 1999. On the other hand, Denmark, Belgium, and the amount of money that Sweden spent on coffee were almost unchanged in 2004.

Bananas definitely have a faster rate of development in five years. Only in 1999, the UK already paid 15 million euros for exported bananas while the numbers of the others were under 2 million. Despite that only Belgium and Sweden paid insignificantly less in 2004 than 1999, the amount of money spent on importing bananas in 2004 has increased greatly. The UK showed a large change from 1999 by adding 32 million euros to the sales figure while Switzerland increment has raised their figure from 1 to 5.5 million."
