Update world coffee prices on May 16, 2025

Coffee prices today, May 16, 2025, on the world market are having interesting mixed fluctuations, with Arabica rising sharply while Robusta continues to weaken due to oversupply pressure. Specifically, on the London floor, the price of Robusta coffee for delivery in July 2025 decreased by 39 USD/ton, down to 4,971 USD/ton, and the September 2025 contract decreased by 27 USD/ton, reaching 4,960 USD/ton - the lowest level in the past 5 weeks. This decline comes from favorable harvest momentum in Brazil and Indonesia, causing an increase in Robusta supply, causing downward pressure on prices. On the contrary, on the New York floor, Arabica coffee prices recorded an impressive increase with the July 2025 contract reaching 375 cents/lb (up 10.2 cents/lb) and September reaching 371.35 cents/lb (up 9.55 cents/lb). The main reason is concerns about adverse weather in key Arabica growing regions in Brazil, a factor that caused the market to plunge earlier this month but has now become a driving force supporting prices.

The coffee price situation today, May 16, 2025, clearly reflects the market's dependence on weather conditions and harvest yields. In this context, farmers and businesses need to flexibly adjust production and export plans. With Robusta under pressure from oversupply, optimizing quality and finding new markets may be the solution. Meanwhile, the rising price momentum of Arabica is an opportunity for exporters to take advantage of, especially when Brazil's weather remains a factor that needs to be closely monitored in the coming days.

Coffee price forecast for tomorrow, May 17, 2025, will increase slightly, exceeding the threshold

Coffee prices on May 17, 2025 are forecast to have positive signals. In the world market, Robusta coffee - a popular coffee in Vietnam - may increase slightly after a period of continuous decline. Experts believe that if the amount of Brazilian coffee sold is not too much, Robusta prices on the London floor will increase slightly. Meanwhile, in Vietnam, coffee prices on May 17, 2025 are predicted to fluctuate between 125,000 and 125,500 VND/kg. Some places such as Dak Lak and Dak Nong may increase slightly by 100 to 200 VND/kg, thanks to the positive sentiment from the increase in the price of Arabica coffee - another type of coffee that is popular in the world.

However, coffee prices on May 17, 2025 will not increase sharply, because demand from major countries such as Europe, the US and China is still low. Currently, many farmers in Vietnam are holding back coffee, waiting for higher prices to sell, so transactions are quite slow. However, businesses believe that coffee prices may increase again in June or July, when the current coffee harvest is sold out. Moreover, coffee reserves in Europe and the US are at a 6-month low, so this is a good sign for coffee prices in the near future. In addition, large companies in the world are buying more coffee to prepare for the year-end consumption season, which may help Arabica coffee prices continue to increase and prevent Robusta prices from falling too deeply. Overall, coffee prices on May 17, 2025 will have some positive changes, but it will take more time to see stronger growth.
