Brazil: Volume of coffee exports in January is a record for the month

Brazil exported 3.961 million 60 kg bags of coffee in January, a record volume for the month and 39% higher than January 2023. Sales revenue was 30.4% higher, at US$802.5 million , compared to US$ 615.5 million, reported the Brazilian Coffee Exporters Council (Cecafé). Shipments of canephora (conilon and robusta varieties) grew 503.5%, reaching 457,787 bags, or 11.56% of the total. “Brazilian Robusta and Conilon remain very competitive on the world market and have been making up for the deficit caused by crop failures in important producers, such as Vietnam and Indonesia, the world's first and third largest producers of the variety, respectively. Not surprisingly, the Vietnamese increased their imports of Brazilian coffee by 700% and the Indonesians increased their imports of Brazilian coffee by 19,130%”, said the president of Cecafé, Márcio Ferreira, in a statement.
