In Vietnam, coffee exports are showing positive signs. In the first half of March, export volume reached nearly 94,000 tons with a value of over 544 million USD, a sharp increase in both volume and value compared to the previous month. Since the beginning of the year, the total coffee export volume has exceeded 406,000 tons, reaching a value of over 2.2 billion USD.
The Vietnam Coffee and Cocoa Association said that the export price of Arabica coffee has exceeded 6,800 USD/ton – the highest level ever. Meanwhile, Robusta coffee has also reached nearly 5,400 USD/ton. Although output has decreased, thanks to high prices, the export value has still increased by more than 30%.
The main reasons for the high coffee prices are the decrease in global supply, domestic farmers selling sparingly and the shortage in the world market. Vietnam is actively building high-quality raw material areas in the Central Highlands, aiming for a revenue target of 20 billion USD per year from the coffee industry.
On the other hand, the cocoa market has witnessed a downward trend. Cocoa prices fell 1.3% last week, closing at $7,765/ton. In the last session of the week, prices fell sharply by nearly 3.8%. From the historical peak of $12,193/ton in December 2024, cocoa prices have fallen more than 36%, indicating that the market is in a strong correction phase after a period of overheating.

In Brazil, climate change continues to have a negative impact on coffee production this year. Cooxupé, the country’s largest coffee cooperative, said a 40-day drought and high temperatures severely affected coffee plant growth. Initially, the situation was positive, but then adverse weather conditions made the harvest outlook pessimistic.
Cooxupé officials say the impact of the drought is irreversible. Temperatures above 32°C mean coffee plants can take up to a week to recover if they have enough water.
However, the weather in February 2025 was even harsher than November 2023 – right at a critical stage of crop development, causing slower growth and fewer branches. This will not only affect the current crop but also extend into 2026-2027.
Meanwhile, a report from Rabobank was less pessimistic. They said that although February was dry, the rains returned in mid-March, helping to improve the situation. The weather forecast is expected to continue to be favorable in the coming period, supporting the development of coffee beans.
Statistics show that in February, Brazil exported 3.3 million bags of coffee, down 18% from the previous month and down 10% from the same period last year. Including the first two months of 2025, the total amount of coffee exported reached 7.3 million bags, down 5.4% compared to the same period last year. The decrease in exports was predicted in advance due to low domestic inventories in Brazil, and could last until the new harvest begins.
