Coffee prices on April 8, 2026: Global prices decline

Coffee prices on April 8 globally

Global coffee prices today declined sharply on both the New York and London exchanges. This movement pushed arabica prices down to their lowest level in 3 weeks, while robusta retreated close to an 8-month low, increasing market volatility.

On the London exchange, online robusta coffee prices for the May 2026 contract fell by as much as 3.85% compared to the previous session, down to just $ 3,315/ton. The July 2026 contract decreased by 3.43%, reaching $ 3,231/ton.

On the New York exchange, arabica coffee prices for the May 2026 contract also dropped sharply by 4% (11.95 cents/pound), to 286.1 cents/pound. The July 2026 contract declined by 3.79% (11.1 cents/pound), reaching 281.3 cents/pound.

Global coffee prices fell sharply after StoneX, a global financial services company, reported that global supply is expected to exceed demand in 2026, with an estimated surplus of around 10 million bags.

According to StoneX forecasts, global coffee production is projected to reach 182.5 million bags, compared to consumption of 172.5 million bags, allowing global inventories to be replenished to over 48 million bags. This follows four consecutive years of decline through 2024 and a slight recovery in 2025.

Experts believe that a more abundant production outlook in 2026 will limit strong price increases. According to analysis by Leonardo Rossetti from StoneX, the global coffee market may record a surplus of around 10 million bags, which tends to ease price pressure, although the process of inventory rebuilding remains uneven, keeping the market volatile.

In producing regions, Brazilian farmers are closely monitoring weather conditions and harvest progress. Recent rainfall in growing areas has improved supply prospects and reinforced the downward adjustment trend in international prices, a movement that has been evident since early 2026 as the market entered a downward phase, supported by more favorable weather and expectations of increased physical supply.

Thus, coffee prices on April 8, 2026, in the global market have declined again on major exchanges.
