Coffee price today 1/1/2025
World coffee prices decreased in the last trading sessions of the old year 2024 and early 2025, the commodity market witnessed a quiet trading session and continued to adjust slightly down before the holiday due to weak trading activities and some year-end book-balancing activities.
However, for the full year of 2024, coffee is the commodity with the strongest price increase for the second consecutive year due to the global supply shortage. Robusta coffee futures for March 2025 ended 2024 with a gain of more than 70%. After 1 year, Robusta reached 4,875 USD/ton, Arabica reached 319.75 cents/lb.

During the year, there was a time when domestic coffee prices reached an all-time high, exceeding 130,000 VND/kg.

For now, the market outlook is muted as investors await the Federal Reserve’s 2025 outlook report, due next week. Coffee prices are also under pressure from a stronger US dollar and improved ICE certified inventories.
Coffee prices have surged in 2024, supported by adverse weather in producing countries, especially the two largest producers, Brazil and Vietnam. Severe drought in Brazil, the world's largest coffee producer, has caused Arabica prices to surge to their highest level in more than 40 years.
So, coffee prices have been rising for quite some time, now reaching an all-time high according to Trading Economics. The global coffee market is at a major crossroads as it enters 2025, with unpredictable developments from supply, weather, to currency fluctuations. Will coffee prices continue to rise or is this a time for adjustment?
The “dominant factors” of the market in 2024, such as supply disruptions, climate change and geopolitical tensions, are the main reasons for the high prices, posing many interesting predictions for 2025. Experts are particularly concerned that the upcoming crop will still be heavily affected, increasing the pressure on global supply.
Coffee prices are expected to remain high in 2025, with significant volatility due to climate disruptions, supply chain challenges and changing demand dynamics. Both the arabica and robusta markets face tight supply conditions, ensuring strong prices in the short to medium term.
The coffee market in 2025 is forecast to remain vibrant, with a mix of risks and opportunities. Factors such as weather, currency fluctuations, and global supply and demand will determine the direction of coffee prices in the coming year. With many potential uncertainties, coffee is likely to continue to be one of the most notable commodities in the global commodity market.
