The International Coffee Organization reported a significant increase in world coffee prices in 2021, with an average price of 152.2 US cents/lb, a 41% increase from the previous year. Prices continued to rise in January 2022, marking a 16-month consecutive growth in the global coffee price index. The increase is attributed to declining certified inventories on coffee exchanges and supply chain issues, including reduced output in Brazil and Colombia. Despite this, global coffee exports increased by 8.9% in December 2021. However, exports from South America saw a sharp decrease in the first quarter of the 2021-2022 crop year, while exports from Asia, Central America, and Africa increased. The robusta coffee market share in total coffee bean exports has increased to 37.5% in the first three months of coffee year 2021-2022, indicating a rebalancing in the market to compensate for the increase in price and shortage of arabica coffee.
