Assessments and forecasts

The inventory factor is currently a factor hindering the decline of coffee. Arabica coffee on the ICE exchange increased to 233,479 bags by the end of September 16, thereby leaving the 27-year low of 217,646 bags but not creating a truly abundant supply, according to ICE’s daily report. ICE added that 16,210 bags have passed quality accreditation to be included in certified inventory, while 2,960 bags do not meet requirements.

Favorable weather conditions in Brazil and Vietnam are also putting pressure on coffee prices. Rainfall higher than normal in Brazil during the current important flowering period may support the 2026-2027 coffee crop, thereby creating downward pressure on prices.

If Brazil’s key Arabica coffee growing region has recorded rainfall suitable for the development and fruiting of coffee trees. In Vietnam, the weather forecasting agency also said that abundant rainfall has improved soil moisture and is expected to support the coffee fruit development process in the Central Highlands region, the largest Robusta coffee production region in the country.

In the long term, the coffee market has been under pressure in the past three weeks due to the prospect of abundant global supply. In its latest report, the International Coffee Organization (ICO) forecasts record global coffee production and market surplus.

According to ICO, global coffee production in the 2025-2026 crop year is estimated to increase by 4.4% compared to the previous crop year to a record 183.6 million bags, while consumption decreased by 0.9% to 180.6 million bags. This caused output to exceed demand by about 3 million bags, the market fell into a state of oversupply for the first time after 4 years.
