Domestic coffee prices
Despite the "price storm" sweeping through international exchanges, the domestic coffee market this morning, December 6, still maintained a stable state in key growing areas.
In the coffee capital of Dak Lak, the price of green coffee beans purchased by dealers is 104,000 VND/kg. Similarly, in the old Dak Nong province, the trading price is also anchored at 104,000 VND/kg.
In Lam Dong province, the current purchase price is listed at 103,300 VND/kg. Meanwhile, in Gia Lai province, traders are trading at 103,600 VND/kg. In general, domestic coffee prices are still holding above VND103,000/kg in the context of the ongoing harvest.
World coffee prices
At the end of the weekend trading session (early morning of December 6, Vietnam time), the international coffee market recorded an adjustment after a series of fluctuations. According to data from the exchange, coffee prices on both London and New York exchanges were closed in the red.
For Robusta coffee on the ICE Europe - London exchange, the January 2026 delivery period closed at 4,302 USD/ton, down slightly compared to the previous session. Selling pressure from hedge funds has made it impossible for prices to maintain recovery momentum.
On the ICE US - New York exchange, Arabica coffee futures for delivery in March 2026 were also under great pressure, closing down 5.65 cents, equivalent to a decrease of 1.48%. The main reason is said to be that the Brazilian Real fell sharply to a seven-week low against the USD, stimulating Brazilian farmers to increase sales to earn domestic currency, putting pressure on prices.
Coffee price assessment and forecast
Entering next week, the coffee market is expected to continue to be dominated by weather factors and harvest progress. Information from the Vietnam Coffee and Cocoa Association shows that the Robusta harvest progress is being accelerated thanks to favorable weather, with about 10% of the area completed. Abundant supply from Vietnam in December is expected to be a factor that will curb the increase in Robusta prices.
In addition, the latest forecast from Conab ( Brazil's crop forecasting agency) has just raised the country's coffee output in 2025 to 56.54 million bags, up 2.4% compared to the previous forecast. This information combined with the postponement of European anti-deforestation regulation (EUDR) is creating a more secure mentality about supply in the medium term for the roasters.
However, the decline will hardly be strong as standard inventories on the ICE exchange are still at a record low. Robusta inventories have now fallen to their lowest level in more than 11 months. Therefore, coffee prices next week are likely to continue to struggle within a narrow range to wait for more specific export figures from major producer countries, according to barchart.com.
