Domestic coffee prices
The domestic coffee market this morning, April 11, recovered after a day of downward adjustment.
According to surveys in key growing areas of the Central Highlands, coffee prices simultaneously increased slightly from 200 to 300 VND/kg, bringing the average price level of the whole region to the threshold of 85,700 VND/kg.
In Dak Nong province (old), the purchase price recorded an increase of 200 VND, pushing the price to the highest in the region at 85,800 VND/kg.
Dak Lak and Gia Lai localities respectively increased by 200 - 300 VND, currently trading stably at the 85. 700 VND/kg mark.
With the same increase of 200 VND, Lam Dong province listed it at 85. 200 VND/kg.
World coffee prices
On the international market, futures exchanges also recorded a slight increase. The New York exchange led the upward trend when Arabica futures for May 2026 surged by 6.4 cents (equivalent to 2.18%), closing at 300.10 cents/lb.
In the same period, the London exchange also witnessed the Robusta line recovering slightly by another 14 USD (equivalent to 0.42%), closing the session at 3,324 USD/ton.
Coffee prices closed the session up again, in which Arabica coffee reached the highest level in 1 week, while Robusta recovered from the lowest level of the most recent contract in 8.5 months. The strengthening of the Brazilian real supported coffee prices as the real exchange rate against the USD rose to the highest level in 2 years yesterday. The strong real caused Brazilian coffee producers to limit export sales.
Market outlook
The scarcity of Robusta coffee supply has continued to support prices. Robusta inventories on the ICE exchange fell to their lowest level in more than 1 year, to 3,977 lots. However, increased Arabica inventories are putting pressure on prices.
The closure of the Strait of Hormuz disrupted global transportation and tightened coffee supply. This move increased transportation costs, insurance and fuel costs, thereby pushing up coffee import and roasting costs.
However, coffee exports increased sharply from Vietnam - the world's largest Robusta producer, which is also putting pressure on Robusta prices to fall. According to the General Statistics Office, Vietnam's coffee exports in the first 3 months of 2026 increased by 14% compared to the same period, reaching 585,000 tons. In 2025, exports increased by 17.5% to 1.58 million tons. Production in the 2025/26 crop year is also forecast to increase by 6% to 1.76 million tons (equivalent to 29.4 million bags), the highest level in 4 years.
The International Coffee Organization (ICO) said that global coffee exports in the current crop year (October - September) decreased by 0.3% compared to the same period, to 138.658 million bags.
The actual price at the purchasing yards may differ depending on the quality of the seeds and the actual transaction agreement.
