In 2025, coffee prices stayed high after a strong rise in 2024 and continued to increase due to supply problems. Bad weather in major producing countries like Brazil, Vietnam, and Indonesia reduced crop output. Dry conditions and heavy rains damaged coffee plants and lowered export volumes, which tightened global supply. At the same time, higher shipping costs added extra pressure on prices.
Trade policies also played a role, as new tariffs and uncertainty in key markets increased costs for exporters and buyers. This made coffee more expensive for businesses and consumers, especially in large markets like the United States and Europe. Many coffee shops and retailers struggled to manage rising costs and were forced to adjust prices. High prices also reduced demand in some regions, with consumers cutting back on consumption. Overall, 2025 showed a strong upward price trend driven mainly by supply shortages, climate issues, and trade disruptions.
