Domestic coffee prices today
Domestic coffee prices today, March 23, 2025, in the Central Highlands region increased slightly compared to yesterday, fluctuating between 132,900 - 134,000 VND/kg.
Accordingly, traders in Dak Nong province are purchasing coffee at the highest price of 134,000 VND/kg. A slight increase of 500 VND/kg compared to yesterday.
Coffee price in Dak Lak province is 133,900 VND/kg, a slight increase of 400 VND/kg compared to yesterday.
Similarly, coffee prices in Gia Lai province increased by VND400/kg and were traded at VND133,900/kg.
In Lam Dong province, coffee prices increased by VND400/kg to VND132,900/kg.
Information about drought in Dak Lak is causing concerns about the next crop's output. This is also one of the reasons why Robusta coffee prices have recently recovered.
Some traders in the Central Highlands said supplies are still scarce and will remain limited until Indonesia enters its harvest season. Importing coffee from Brazil to make up for last year’s shortage is also not feasible because supplies from Brazil are tight.
Mr. Boubaker Ben-Belhassen, Director of Markets and Trade at FAO, said that the current high coffee prices are an incentive for the coffee industry to invest more heavily in technology, research and support for smallholder farmers to increase their ability to adapt to climate change.
The FAO also warned that climate change is a long-term challenge for global coffee production. According to the organization, in 2024, the average global coffee price increased by nearly 39% compared to the previous year, due to a decline in production due to extreme weather. If production continues to decline in major growing regions, coffee prices in 2025 could increase even more sharply.

Since the beginning of 2025, Vietnam's coffee export prices have continuously set new records, helping to increase the export value of this potential product.
According to data from the Customs Department, in February 2025 alone, Vietnam exported nearly 170,000 tons of coffee, earning more than 964 million USD. Compared to the previous month, output increased by 26.7% and value increased by 32.2%. Compared to the same period last year, export volume increased by only nearly 7%, but value increased by 82.6%.
In the first two months of the year, coffee exports reached more than 309 thousand tons, bringing in 1.72 billion USD. Although output decreased by 22% compared to the same period last year, thanks to a sharp increase in export prices, the total value still increased by more than 37%.
The Import-Export Department under the Ministry of Industry and Trade said that this positive result came from abundant domestic supply when coffee entered the harvest season. Notably, the average export price in the first two months of the year increased by nearly 76% compared to the same period last year, reaching 5,561 USD/ton. In February alone, the average coffee price reached 5,678 USD/ton, higher than January and far exceeding the price in the same period last year.
