Today’s coffee market in Vietnam is expected to see a slight adjustment from the 103,900 VND/kg level before the London exchange opens.
Yesterday, domestic coffee prices saw a slight recovery, increasing by an average of 200–500 VND/kg to secure supplies from farmers.
Vietnam is currently in the peak coffee harvesting season.
What Are the Reasons?
This week’s coffee price decline is attributed to Vietnam’s ongoing harvest, which has increased supply. Additionally, the depreciation of the Brazilian Real against the USD has further reduced coffee prices in USD terms.
Another significant factor is the near-certain delay of the European Union’s Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) by an additional year. This postponement halts Vietnam’s competitive advantage in meeting these criteria compared to other producers.
Recently, Vietnam was officially classified as a “low-risk” country under the EUDR, allowing its agricultural and forestry products, including coffee, to undergo simplified control procedures compared to competitors.
To comply with the EUDR, Vietnamese businesses have invested significantly, positioning themselves ahead of mandatory requirements.
