Coffee prices have risen sharply primarily due to a decrease in supply caused by unfavorable weather conditions, while demand continues to increase. In addition, factors such as financial speculation, rising production costs, and new trade regulations are also contributing to the price increase.
Consumers are being significantly impacted by the sharp increase in retail and cafe coffee prices. This has led many to change their consumption habits, switching to cheaper alternatives such as tea or instant coffee.
For farmers, high prices bring better profits, but rising input costs also significantly reduce the actual profit margin. Furthermore, climate change and high production costs make expanding cultivated land difficult, limiting the potential for future supply increases.

February 2025 witnessed a vibrant period for the coffee market. Exports in the month exceeded 190,000 tons, generating over $1 billion in revenue in just one month. Cumulatively up to February, Vietnam had exported over 343,000 tons of coffee, with a total value exceeding $1.87 billion.
Notably, foreign-invested enterprises (FDI) have made a strong comeback to the market after a period of stagnation. In February, FDI enterprises accounted for 27% of the total volume of green coffee exports and 28% of the total export value, bringing the market share of foreign companies back to normal levels after an unexpected decline in the past.
According to Mr. Nguyen Nam Hai, Chairman of the Vietnam Coffee and Cocoa Association (VICOFA), coffee export volume in February has not yet reached the high levels of previous years. He also noted that current coffee prices are very difficult to predict due to too many unstable factors beyond supply and demand, especially the escalating trade tensions between the US and China, which are significantly affecting the global coffee market.
