Coffee prices today, June 1, 2026, closed the week on a weaker note across both domestic and international markets. In Vietnam, coffee prices in the Central Highlands fell by VND 600–700 per kilogram compared to the previous week, while global coffee futures declined sharply as investors reacted to improving supply prospects in Brazil and increasing expectations for new robusta production from Indonesia.
The decline reflects a broader shift in market sentiment. After reaching historic highs throughout 2024 and early 2025, coffee markets are entering a period of correction as supply concerns begin to ease. However, despite recent price declines, the long-term outlook for the coffee sector remains positive due to strong global demand and continued investment in coffee production.
Vietnam Coffee Prices Today
At the end of the trading week, coffee prices across Vietnam’s Central Highlands ranged from VND 86,800 to VND 87,400 per kilogram, marking a decline of VND 600–700 per kilogram from the previous week.
Current prices include:
- Dak Nong: VND 87,400/kg, down VND 700/kg
- Dak Lak: VND 87,300/kg, down VND 700/kg
- Gia Lai: VND 87,300/kg, down VND 600/kg
- Lam Dong: VND 86,800/kg, down VND 600/kg
Although prices softened during the week, the market remains relatively strong compared to historical averages.
Trading activity in Vietnam continues to be slow as many farmers remain reluctant to sell their remaining inventories. Following the record-breaking coffee prices witnessed during 2024 and 2025, growers are still hopeful that prices may recover in the coming months, particularly if weather-related risks emerge in major producing countries.
As a result, both producers and exporters are taking a cautious approach while waiting for clearer market signals.
Global Coffee Prices Decline Across Major Exchanges
International coffee markets ended the week significantly lower as traders increased selling activity and adjusted positions based on expectations of improving global supply.
London Robusta Coffee Prices
On the London exchange, robusta coffee futures declined across all major delivery months:
- July 2026 contract fell by USD 78 per ton (-2.19%) to USD 3,476/ton
- September 2026 contract dropped USD 68 per ton (-1.99%) to USD 3,347/ton
- December 2026 contract declined USD 66 per ton (-1.98%) to USD 3,272/ton
The robusta market has been under pressure as traders anticipate larger supplies entering the market later this year.
New York Arabica Coffee Prices
Arabica coffee futures on the New York exchange experienced even steeper losses:
- July 2026 contract fell 8.65 cents/lb (-3.15%) to 265.60 cents/lb
- September 2026 contract dropped 8 cents/lb (-3.0%) to 258.70 cents/lb
- December 2026 contract declined 7.70 cents/lb (-2.97%) to 251.20 cents/lb
The stronger decline in arabica prices reflects growing confidence that Brazil’s upcoming harvest could significantly improve global supply conditions.
Brazil Continues to Influence Global Coffee Prices
Brazil remains the most important factor affecting coffee prices worldwide.
Recent reports indicate favorable weather conditions across key coffee-growing regions, supporting expectations for a strong 2026/27 crop. Harvest progress has also improved, reinforcing market confidence that global coffee supplies could recover after several years of climate-related disruptions.
For much of the past few years, droughts, frost events, and production challenges in Brazil contributed to tight supplies and record-high coffee prices. However, the current outlook suggests a more balanced market.
If production reaches forecast levels, Brazil could significantly increase global coffee availability, reducing some of the supply concerns that previously supported higher prices.
As a result, investors have become more cautious, leading to increased profit-taking and downward pressure on coffee futures.
Indonesia Adds Further Pressure to the Robusta Market
In addition to Brazil, Indonesia is emerging as another key factor shaping coffee market sentiment.
The country is entering its new robusta harvest season, with expectations for improved production volumes. Fresh supplies from Indonesia are expected to reach international markets in the coming months, providing additional robusta availability.
This development may increase competition for Vietnamese coffee exporters, particularly in key robusta-consuming markets.
With both Brazil and Indonesia expected to contribute larger supplies, traders are closely monitoring global inventory levels and export flows.
Positive Long-Term Outlook for Vietnam’s Coffee Industry
Despite short-term price weakness, Vietnam’s coffee sector continues to enjoy strong long-term fundamentals. According to forecasts from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Vietnam’s coffee production for the 2026/27 crop year is expected to reach 32.5 million bags, supported by favorable investment conditions and expanded production capacity.
Several factors are contributing to this positive outlook:
- Strong coffee prices during 2024 and 2025 encouraged farm investment.
- Farmers increased spending on crop maintenance and renovation.
- Export demand remains resilient.
- Domestic coffee consumption continues to grow.
- Specialty coffee and value-added coffee segments are expanding.
Vietnam is also increasingly focused on producing higher-quality coffees, improving traceability, and developing specialty coffee programs that generate greater value for both producers and exporters.
Coffee Price Forecast for the Coming Months
In the short term, coffee prices may remain under pressure due to expectations of larger harvests in Brazil and Indonesia.
However, several factors could still provide support to the market:
- Weather-related risks in major coffee-producing countries.
- Relatively tight global coffee inventories.
- Continued growth in global coffee consumption.
- Strong demand from emerging coffee markets.
For these reasons, analysts believe coffee prices are likely to remain highly volatile throughout 2026 rather than entering a prolonged downward trend.
For Vietnam, maintaining quality, ensuring consistent supply, and expanding premium coffee offerings will be essential to strengthening its position in the global coffee market as supply and demand move toward a new equilibrium.
