Robusta Coffee Prices Surge 46% in a Month
As of September 1st, the domestic market remains in the holiday period. Across the country, many have received or are about to receive the Government’s gift of 100,000 VND on the occasion of National Day.
Looking back at the past week, the price of Robusta coffee on the London market in the UK surged to 4,815 USD/ton, an increase of 165 USD/ton or 3.55%. Meanwhile, Arabica coffee on the New York market in the US reached 8,410 USD/ton, up 2.1% from the previous week.
Compared to the previous month, Robusta prices have skyrocketed by 46%, while Arabica prices have risen by 33%. In contrast, gold prices during the same period showed a more modest increase of 5.44%.
Domestic coffee prices are currently on par with international prices at 122,400 VND/kg, and trading activities are limited due to the holiday season.
Several factors in the coffee market could further drive up prices. Notably, Brazil, the world’s largest coffee producer, is facing challenges due to unfavorable weather conditions.
According to StoneX, a global financial brokerage and commodity market analysis organization, the output of Brazilian Arabica coffee in the 2025-2026 crop year could decrease by up to 18.4%.

In the previous crop year, Brazil was considered to have had a bumper crop with a production of 65 million bags. However, exports in July 2025 plummeted by 28%, raising doubts about the initial assessment.
According to the Import and Export Department – Ministry of Industry and Trade, limited supply, unstable policies of coffee importing countries (such as the US), and strong buying from investment funds have pushed up coffee prices.
“In the context of global economic instability, Vietnamese Robusta coffee is becoming the preferred choice for both importers and consumers due to its competitive pricing,” the department stated.
However, according to experts, the market dynamics could shift in October 2025 when Vietnam enters the harvest season. A bountiful harvest is expected due to favorable weather conditions, which could result in increased supply and a potential downward pressure on prices.
