Market outlook
Robusta coffee prices have interrupted a series of consecutive declines, rebounding strongly, while Arabica coffee prices have increased less.
Arabica coffee contracts are under pressure due to the increase in coffee exports from Brazil, the leading producer. Along with that, the return of rain is a positive sign for the flowering phase, a factor that plays a decisive role in the output of next year's coffee crop.
In the first 8 months of 2026, Vietnam exported 1.33 million tons of coffee, up 13.7% compared to the same period last year. Coffee export revenue in this period decreased by 8.6% to 6 billion USD. In August alone, Vietnam exported 132,000 tons of coffee, up 13.7% compared to the same period last year.
The prospects for the Robusta crop 2027-2028 are also quite positive. Robusta coffee trees have completed the flowering process and if weather conditions are favorable, the next crop output may be equivalent to or even exceed the record level of the 2025-2026 crop year.
