Vietnam’s coffee sector achieved a historic milestone in 2025, with export revenues surpassing US$8.4 billion, driven by strong global demand and high prices for premium beans. Exports totaled over 1.5 million tons, a 16.9% increase in volume and a 60.7% rise in value compared to 2024. The country’s focus on processed coffee helped boost value, with processed coffee exports reaching US$1 billion for the first time, enhancing farmers’ profits by 2–3 times.
Key growth markets include the EU, the US, and emerging markets such as Algeria and Mexico. Vietnam’s coffee production is concentrated in the Central Highlands provinces (Dak Lak, Lam Dong, Gia Lai), covering roughly 710,000 hectares, with yields rising from 16 quintals per hectare in 2005 to 30 quintals in 2025. Experts attribute the record export value to global price surges caused by supply constraints from climate change and El Niño, as well as improved bean quality through advanced processing and traceability initiatives. The prosperous season has benefited farmers and harvesters alike, contributing to economic growth in the region.
