The National Coffee Association (NCA) has just released its 2025 U.S. Coffee Outlook Report, which forecasts a slight increase in the U.S. coffee industry this year. The U.S. remains the world's largest coffee consumer, with approximately 1.44 million tons, and coffee sales in the country are projected to reach $19.7 billion in 2024.

Meanwhile, coffee businesses in Brazil are also struggling to fulfill export contracts. Central do Cafe – one of the largest coffee buyers in Brazil – recently announced a temporary suspension of operations to assess its financial situation. This raises concerns about potential supply disruptions in the coming months.

In addition, the increase in transaction costs on the ICE exchange is also a factor driving up coffee prices. According to Reuters, ICE recently increased the margin requirement to $10,410 per Arabica contract – almost double that of last year. This puts significant pressure on investors holding short positions, forcing them to cut their losses, thereby pushing prices higher.
