Domestic Coffee Prices Surge Ahead of Global Markets
Global coffee prices remain steady at $3,858 per ton for Robusta and $7,640 per ton for Arabica, both for March 2026 delivery.
Today’s domestic coffee prices average 96,700 VND/kg, up 1,700 VND/kg from the previous session.
Since December 20th, domestic coffee prices have risen consistently, increasing by 1,000–2,400 VND/kg daily, totaling a 7,500 VND/kg gain, while global prices have only risen by about 5,000 VND/kg.
Domestic coffee prices are outpacing global rates due to high demand from exporters fulfilling signed contracts.
Additionally, coffee prices have dropped 30% from their peak, making it a more favorable time for buyers.
China Increases Vietnamese Coffee Imports
China Boosts Vietnamese Coffee Purchases
China is emerging as a key market for coffee as its younger generation shifts from tea to coffee consumption.
Customs data reveals that in November 2025, China imported 4,832 tons of coffee, a 96% increase year-over-year.
In the first 11 months of 2025, China imported 44,633 tons of coffee worth $223.5 million, ranking as Vietnam’s 10th largest coffee export market.
Many businesses note that while Chinese demand for coffee is high, complex formal export procedures limit the number of licensed exporters.
As more companies obtain export licenses, export volumes could surge.
When announcing a 10,000-hectare coffee investment, Doan Nguyen Duc (Bầu Đức), Chairman of Hoang Anh Gia Lai JSC, cited strong Chinese demand and partner recommendations, given the company’s ideal land for coffee cultivation.
