Coffee prices on August 14, 2025: Robusta surges

Coffee prices on August 14 globally

Globally, prices on both the London and New York exchanges on August 14, 2025, rose sharply.

On the London exchange, Robusta for September 2025 delivery surged by $ 206 (equivalent to 5.53%) to reach $ 3,933/ton. The November 2025 contract also gained $ 171 (equivalent to 4.71%) to stand at $ 3,799/ton.

On the New York exchange, Arabica for September 2025 delivery increased by 4.45 cents (equivalent to 1.41%) to 319.60 cents/lb. The December 2025 contract rose by 4.35 cents (equivalent to 1.41%) to 312.65 cents/lb.

Global coffee prices rose across the board today. Robusta jumped to its highest level in two months, driven by short-covering after a heavy sell-off from May to July, along with news that Brazil’s robusta exports in July plunged by 49% compared to the same period last year.

Arabica prices also increased as investors continued to assess the impact of the high U.S. import tariff on Brazil – the world’s leading coffee producer – and turned their attention to a cold front affecting some of the country’s coffee-growing areas.

According to Cecafe, U.S. importers have requested to delay shipments after the U.S. imposed a 50% tariff on Brazilian goods. Additionally, reports of light frost in certain Brazilian coffee regions have pushed prices higher this week, even though the harvest is still progressing smoothly.

Cooxupe, Brazil’s largest coffee cooperative, reported that as of August 8, farmers had harvested 80.4% of the 2025 crop, lower than the 87.3% recorded at the same time last year.

Thus, global coffee prices on August 14, 2025, rose sharply compared to yesterday.
