Vietnam’s Coffee Export: Set to Surpass USD 7.5 Billion in 2025

Vietnam continues to assert its global dominance in the coffee industry, achieving record-breaking export results in the first half of 2025. With rising prices, expanding markets, and strong demand for Robusta coffee, Vietnam’s coffee sector is on track to exceed expectations.

Vietnam’s Coffee Export Performance: January – June 2025

In the first six months of 2025, Vietnam exported 947,100 tons of coffee, generating an export turnover of USD 5.403 billion. This marks a 4.5% increase in volume and a dramatic 66.2% surge in value compared to the same period in 2024, driven by higher global coffee prices and favorable export conditions.

While shipments to some traditional markets declined, exports to Mexico and South Africa skyrocketed, recording growth rates of 8,697% and 1,524.5% respectively, highlighting Vietnam’s ability to capture emerging demand globally.

June 2025 Coffee Export Data: Strong Year-over-Year Growth

According to Vietnam Customs, coffee exports in June 2025 totaled 117,900 tons and USD 677.9 million. Compared to June 2024, exports rose by 52.1% in quantity and an impressive 92.1% in value.

The average export price of Vietnamese coffee in June 2025 reached USD 5,745.9 per ton, a slight 0.6% decrease from the previous month, but a 26.4% increase year-over-year. For the entire first half of 2025, the average export price was USD 5,705.1 per ton, up 59% compared to 2024.

Market Trends: EU, U.S., and Asia Drive Growth

Vietnam experienced notable growth in coffee exports to EU countries including Germany, Italy, Belgium, and France. Triple-digit growth was recorded in Spain, the Netherlands, Greece, and Denmark, reflecting increased demand for Vietnam’s Robusta beans across the bloc.

In contrast, exports to Italy, Portugal, Japan, and Russia saw declines, while shipments to Germany, Poland, the United States, Algeria, South Korea, and Malaysia increased.

Vietnam Coffee Exports Set to Surpass USD 7.5 Billion in 2025

Vietnam’s original export target for 2025 was USD 5.5 billion. Having already achieved USD 5.4 billion in the first half, the country is now projected to reach USD 7.5 billion by year-end a 36.9% increase over 2024.

Coffee production peaks from December to April, meaning that the second half of the year typically sees lower volumes. Still, if Vietnam secures USD 2.1 billion in export revenue in the last six months, the industry will surpass its goal.

Key Markets for Expansion: U.S., EU, and Northeast Asia

The United States remains the largest global coffee importer, and Vietnam is well-positioned to expand its share, especially in premium segments, specialty coffee, and instant coffee. The U.S. is a strategic market for value-added Vietnamese coffee.

The European Union is Vietnam’s top export destination. With Vietnam classified as “low-risk” for deforestation, exporters enjoy a competitive edge under the new EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR). However, full compliance will be required moving forward.

Meanwhile, China, Japan, and South Korea are emerging as robust markets for Vietnamese Robusta coffee, while India offers potential thanks to low logistics costs and strong consumption growth.
