Domestic coffee prices today, August 27, 2025, in the Central Highlands region ended the increase compared to yesterday, fluctuating in the range of 121,500 - 122,000 VND/kg.

Accordingly, traders in the old Dak Nong region are purchasing coffee at the highest price of 122,000 VND/kg, unchanged from yesterday.

Similarly, coffee price in Dak Lak province is 122,000 VND/kg, unchanged from yesterday.

Coffee prices in Gia Lai province remained unchanged from yesterday and were traded at VND121,800/kg.

The end of the domestic coffee price increase today is considered a reasonable development after the market had a week of consecutive increases. The slight decrease helps the market adjust and balance supply and demand.

Domestically, coffee supply is increasingly scarce. According to data from the Customs Department, in July 2025, Vietnam exported 102,000 tons of coffee, worth 555.8 million USD, down 13.6% in volume and 18% in value compared to the previous month. However, compared to the same period in 2024, the amount of coffee exported in July still increased by 33.1% and the value increased by 45.8%.

Since early 2025, coffee exports have peaked in March and then gradually declined, indicating that businesses are taking advantage of good prices to sell heavily. The decline in July was due to depleted domestic supplies and rising domestic prices, forcing many businesses to limit sales. In addition, escalating logistics costs also contributed to the decline in export volumes.

In the long term, coffee prices are still assessed positively thanks to stable growth in global consumption demand and limited supply. However, the market can still be affected by many factors such as unusual weather conditions, monetary policies of countries and fluctuations in exchange rates.

World coffee prices today

On the London Stock Exchange, the online price of Robusta coffee futures for September 2025 delivery closed at $4,896 per tonne, up 0.62% ($30 per tonne) from yesterday. The November 2025 futures contract fell 0.04% ($2 per tonne) to $4,648 per tonne.

Meanwhile, on the New York Stock Exchange, the price of Arabica coffee for delivery in September 2025 decreased by 2.55% (9.95 US cents/pound) compared to yesterday, to 380 US cents/pound. The contract for delivery in December 2025 decreased by 2.54% (9.6 US cents/pound), to 368.15 US cents/pound.

Many U.S. green coffee buyers are holding back on new contracts with Brazil, according to a Bloomberg survey of brokers, exporters and roasters. Meanwhile, international Arabica coffee prices surged more than 30 percent in August on the ICE Futures Exchange, driven largely by U.S. tariffs, Reuters data showed.

The 2025 Arabica coffee supply situation in Brazil has entered its final phase and is expected to be about 10% lower than the initial forecast. In addition, frosts in some growing regions threaten to further reduce next year’s output. These factors contributed to the increase in Arabica coffee prices on the world market by more than 30% in August.

In response, US importers were forced to look for alternative sources of supply. Countries such as Colombia, Honduras, Guatemala and Costa Rica became preferred destinations, despite offering prices higher than ICE futures prices. This was an opportunity for these producers to expand their market share in the US.

Europe has also emerged as a major beneficiary, particularly Germany and Belgium. Many Brazilian coffees are being processed, roasted, or blended and then re-exported to the US as EU goods, which are subject to lower tariffs. Meanwhile, hedge funds on the ICE exchange have also taken advantage of the supply shortage and price volatility to increase trading, making the coffee market even more vibrant and volatile.
