Coffee prices on December 21, 2024, fluctuated mixed on the London and New York exchanges, with Robusta price decreasing and Arabica price increasing slightly. Consulting firm Safras & Mercado predicted a decrease in Brazil's coffee output in the 2025/26 crop year, leading to a potential increase in Arabica prices despite a high inventory. However, Robusta is under pressure due to a sharp increase in inventory and the ongoing harvest in Vietnam. In Vietnam, domestic coffee prices decreased, and coffee export turnover exceeded 4.24 billion USD for the whole year of 2023, setting a new record despite a decrease in export volume. The European Union continued to be Vietnam's largest coffee consumer market, with a significant increase in turnover despite a decrease in volume.
