Brazil Coffee Revenue Hits Record $15.6 Billion for 2025 as Prices Rise, Germany Becomes Top Buyer

An ICE futures rally in early January revived local trading, lifting reference prices.

Overview

  • Brazil shipped 40.049 million 60‑kg sacks to 121 countries in 2025, with higher prices lifting revenue despite lower volume.
  • The average export price rose to US$389.17 per sack in 2025 from US$248.36 in 2024, reflecting tighter global availability.
  • Germany edged ahead of the United States as Brazil’s largest buyer last year, purchasing 5.40 million sacks versus 5.38 million to the U.S.
  • Cecafé reported U.S. tariffs in effect for nearly four months cut Brazilian shipments to that market by about 55%, with soluble coffee still taxed.
  • Cepea said domestic activity picked up after a January 6 surge of 1,450 points in the March 2026 ICE contract, with robusta near R$1,200 and arabica near R$2,200 per sack, while low rainfall threatens the 2026/27 crop and São Paulo producers’ fertilizer purchasing power improved to about 1.16 sacks per ton.
