In the first 7 months of 2025, Vietnam's coffee exports reached about 1.05 million tons, equivalent to a value exceeding 6 billion USD, exceeding the total value for the whole year of 2024.
Strong exports have caused the amount of goods flowing into the domestic market to decrease (affected), creating a supportive side for prices.
World coffee prices
In the world market, Robusta prices in London and Arabica prices in New York both increased sharply. For the September 2025 term, Robusta prices increased by 143 USD/ton, to 3,561 USD/ton; for the November 2025 term, they increased by 133 USD/ton, reaching 3,510 USD/ton. Longer terms all increased from 117 - 124 USD/ton.
On the New York Stock Exchange, Arabica futures for September 2025 increased by 11.55 cents/pound to 309.35 cents/pound; December 2025 futures increased by 11.30 cents/pound to 302.45 cents/pound; the remaining terms increased from 8.65 - 9.95 cents/pound.
World coffee prices continued to increase this week on Friday and skyrocketed to a 3-week high.
Signs of tight coffee supply are supporting prices after the Brazilian Ministry of Commerce reported on Wednesday that Brazil's unroasted coffee exports in July fell -20.4% compared to the same period last year, down to 161,000 tons.
The inventory of arabica tracked by ICE has dropped to a 14.5-month low of only 738,095, while the inventory of Robusta has increased to a 1-year high of 7,029 lots, putting certain pressure on Robusta prices.
The Brazilian real currency's increase to a 1-month high also contributed to supporting prices, as a strong domestic currency limited Brazilian exporters' sales. In addition, dry weather in Brazil continues to be a positive factor, as the country's largest arabica growing area - Minas Gerais - received only 2.7 mm of rain in the week ended August 2, 31% of the historical average.
However, the 2025/26 coffee harvest in Brazil is putting certain pressure on prices, as it has completed 94% of the area, of which robusta is almost finished (99%) and arabica is 91%.
In addition, Cecafe said Brazil's green coffee exports in June fell 31% year-on-year to 2.3 million bags, with arabica cut 27% and Robusta cut 42%. This is a signal of price support in the short term.
