In particular, in May 2023, the export volume of coffee was only recorded at 149,667 tonnes, down 8.5% from the previous month and the second-lowest monthly export level since the beginning of the year.
Coffee production in the year 2022/23 is estimated to decrease by 10-15%, according to the Vietnam Coffee Association (Vicofa). For a coffee-producing power like Vietnam, the loss of 10-15% of output is huge, which will affect the supply-demand as well as the global coffee price.
