Episode Summary: Global Coffee Market Weekly – June 15, 2025
- This episode of the CropGPT Global Coffee Market Weekly focuses on the latest developments in Vietnam and Brazil, two of the world’s most influential coffee producers.
- Vietnam reported record-high export revenues of $4.7 billion for the first five months of 2025, despite a slight 0.6% dip in export volumes. The surge was driven by significantly higher prices, averaging $5,709 per ton. Major markets included the European Union and the United States, while emerging markets like Algeria, Mexico, and South Africa also showed strong growth. However, declining global coffee prices and falling domestic prices in Vietnam's Central Highlands pose emerging risks. Looking forward, Vietnam’s coffee production is expected to rise by 6.9%, with the government targeting $7 billion in total export value this year.
- Meanwhile, Brazil continues to expand its footprint in global markets, supported by the rise of Amazonian Robusta from Rondonia. This variety, known for its resilience and strong flavor, is gaining popularity. However, climate change is reshaping cultivation strategies. In Cerrado Monero, farmers are testing canilon coffee, a robusta variant, to cope with rising temperatures. Currency dynamics, such as the strength of the Brazilian real, are also influencing export behavior and price stability.
- The episode concludes by highlighting the importance of adapting to both market opportunities and environmental challenges, while encouraging listeners to explore more comprehensive data and insights on the CropGPT platform.
