Domestic coffee prices today, May 10, 2025, in the Central Highlands region increased slightly compared to yesterday, fluctuating between 128,300 - 128,700 VND/kg.

Arabica prices are being supported by speculative buying as inventories at ICE fall, while Robusta prices are being held steady by low exports from Vietnam and slower-than-expected harvest progress in Indonesia, according to Reuters. However, favorable weather forecasts with rain in the Central Highlands (Vietnam) and robusta growing regions in Brazil could ease concerns about supply shortages, thereby putting pressure on prices in the short term.
Faced with unpredictable market developments, the Prime Minister assigned the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment to coordinate with the Ministry of Finance and relevant agencies to research solutions to support the temporary purchase and storage of agricultural products prone to price drops such as rice, coffee, and pepper to stabilize farmers' income during the peak harvest season.
At the same time, the Prime Minister requested ministries, branches and localities to closely follow global trade developments, proactively and flexibly manage and promptly provide information to businesses to effectively deal with challenges from international trade instability.
World coffee prices today
Coffee prices on the world market fluctuate on two exchanges:
Robusta Coffee (London):
Delivery in July 2025: Down 56 USD/ton, to 5,209 USD/ton.
Delivery in September 2025: Down 45 USD/ton, to 5,168 USD/ton.
Arabica Coffee (New York):
July 2025 Delivery: Up 0.1 cent/lb, to 387.45 cent/lb.
September 2025 delivery: Up 0.35 cent/lb, to 382.15 cent/lb.
Robusta coffee supplies in Asia are tight as Vietnamese farmers have sold most of their stocks, while the harvest season in Indonesia has yet to begin. This puts pressure on the export coffee market in the short term.
In Brazil, preliminary data showed that green coffee exports in April reached only 2.88 million bags, down nearly 32% compared to the same period last year. In that context, increased speculative activities after many consecutive sessions of price declines, along with money flowing from the gold market to the two coffee exchanges, contributed to a slight increase in prices.
However, the price increase is being restrained due to the strengthening of the USD following the results of the US-UK negotiations and the decision of the US Federal Reserve (Fed) to keep interest rates unchanged.
