World coffee prices
In the world market, coffee prices fell sharply in the most recent session.
According to Barchart, the December 2026 Arabica futures contract closed down 6.15 US cents/lb, equivalent to 1.80%. In the same session, the November 2026 Robusta futures contract fell 111 USD/ton, equivalent to 2.92%.
Barchart said coffee prices wiped out the upward momentum at the beginning of the session and fell sharply as information emerged that some warehouses in Brazil no longer received new coffee due to running out of storage space. This increased expectations that farmers may have to sell more as storage space shrinks.
This development puts pressure on domestic coffee prices, especially when Robusta fell nearly 3% in the most recent session. For Vietnam, Robusta is still the group that has a more direct impact on domestic purchasing prices.
Coffee price assessment
Domestic coffee prices decreased by 500 VND/kg after a strong increase session, in the same direction as the adjustment of world prices. Domestic decreases are not too deep, but show that the market is still fluctuating rapidly around the 97,000-98,000 VND/kg range.
According to Barchart, Robusta is under more pressure as Robusta's ICE-certified inventory rose to a 9-month high. In the opposite direction, Arabica's ICE-certified inventory fell to a 2.75-year low, which is a factor that could support Arabica in subsequent sessions.
Barchart also recorded Brazilian coffee harvest progress still slower than the same period. Cooxupe Cooperative said harvest reached 81.1% as of August 14, lower than 86.1% in the same period last year; Safras & Mercado recorded Brazilian coffee harvest reaching 90% as of August 12, lower than 97% in the same period and the 5-year average of 94%.
Domestically, according to the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, in July, Vietnam exported about 147,600 tons of coffee, worth 639.5 million USD. Accumulated in the first 7 months of the year, coffee exports reached about 1.2 million tons, up 10.8% in volume but turnover decreased by 11.2%, to 5.45 billion USD. This development is mainly due to the average export price decreasing by 19.9% compared to the same period, down to 4,537 USD/ton.
Regarding the weather, the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting said that on the day and night of August 26, the Central Highlands area will be cloudy, with showers and thunderstorms in some places; especially in the late afternoon and evening, there will be scattered showers and thunderstorms. Lowest temperature 21-24 degrees C, in some places below 20 degrees C; highest temperature 29-32 degrees C.
Rainstorms in this season need to be monitored in terms of garden care, pest and disease prevention, and goods preservation.
