Coffee prices have increased sharply in recent times partly because supply has not met expectations, while demand from major markets often increases in the last months of the year. Although in the long term, world coffee production is forecast to increase, in the short term, prices are still difficult to predict because they are affected by many different factors.
The fact that Vietnamese coffee prices remain high while exports hit record highs reflects the industry’s competitiveness in the context of volatile global markets. This shows that the position of Vietnamese coffee is being consolidated on the global export map.
Mr. Hoang Danh Huu, Director of Ede Farm Trading and Service Company Limited (Miss Ede brand, Dak Lak), said that the company is temporarily suspending exports to the US. This decision is to wait for official announcement and more stable prices to ensure business efficiency.
However, to maintain their advantage, businesses and farmers need to increase investment in deep processing, apply sustainable production models and strengthen price risk management. The market is entering a more unpredictable phase than in the first half of the year, requiring careful preparation to cope with upcoming fluctuations.
World coffee prices today
On the London Stock Exchange, the online price of Robusta coffee futures for September 2025 delivery closed the trading session on August 12 at $3,692/ton, down slightly by 0.97% ($36/ton) compared to the previous trading session. However, the November 2025 futures contract fell by 1.64% ($60/ton) to $3,604/ton.
On the New York Stock Exchange, the price of Arabica coffee for September 2025 delivery decreased slightly by 2.31% (7.4 US cents/pound) to 313.3 US cents/pound. The contract for December 2025 delivery decreased by 2.32% (7.3 US cents/pound) to 306.75 US cents/pound.
Arabica coffee prices hit a seven-week high and Robusta hit a one-month peak. One of the factors driving prices was Brazil’s July 2025 export figures of just 161,000 bags, down 20% year-on-year. This was surprising given that Brazil had just harvested in May 2025 with a supposedly abundant output.
In addition, the reciprocal tax from the US has not been clearly announced, causing coffee transactions to slow down. Market participants are closely monitoring the situation to make decisions, avoiding risks when policies can change unexpectedly.
The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) forecasts that global coffee production in the 2025/26 crop year could reach a record 178.7 million bags, with Vietnam producing 1.85 million tons, the highest in four years. Global consumption is estimated at 169.4 million bags, opening up export opportunities, but abundant supply could put downward pressure on prices and narrow profit margins in the coming period.
Currently, international coffee prices remain low, while domestic prices remain high. Finished product manufacturers such as Miss Ede still have raw materials purchased at peak prices, so they cannot reduce their selling prices, affecting product consumption.
