Robusta Coffee Prices Drop to a Minimum Due to High Supplies from Vietnam

The price of robusta coffee on the global market has fallen to its lowest level in the past two months. The main reason for this decline is the significant supply from Vietnam, which is the leading producer of this type of coffee bean.

Increase in Coffee Exports from Vietnam

According to data from the National Statistical Office of Vietnam, coffee exports from the country reached 88,000 tons in November, nearly 40% more than in the same period last year. Overall, in the eleven months of 2025, supply volumes increased by 15%.

It is noted that there is increased pressure on the global market due to expectations of a record harvest in Vietnam – the largest in the last four years, despite adverse weather conditions such as heavy rains.

Price Dynamics and Producers’ Forecasts

Robusta futures lost 1.2% and reached their lowest marks since the end of September, after which a partial correction occurred. Meanwhile, in 2023–2024, global coffee prices surged: the cost of arabica rose by 190%, while robusta increased by 263%.

“The figures announced align with expectations and confirm the potential recovery to normal levels as the new harvest approaches,” noted trading company I & M Smith Ltd. in an analytical report.

However, even the current price drop does not deter producers from plans to further increase coffee prices. They argue that this is due to the excessive cost of unprocessed beans, which, according to them, is caused by speculative actions of suppliers.
