Mexico increases coffee imports from Vietnam

VOV.VN - Mexico surpassed China to become Vietnam’s ninth largest coffee export market during the first four months of 2025, according to Vietnam Customs.

Statistics show that among the top 10 key export markets, coffee exports to Mexico experienced a dramatic surge in both volume and value.

The first four months of 2025 saw Vietnamese businesses export about 17,413 tonnes of coffee to Mexico, earning nearly US$93 million. Compared to the same period last year, the export volume to this market increased by 2,971%, while the export value soared by 5,412%.

Such impressive growth was partly attributed to rising global coffee prices in early 2025 driven by supply shortages from major producers like Brazil and Vietnam. This surge in prices made Vietnamese coffee more attractive to international buyers, including Mexico.

In addition, in response to trade challenges and tariffs affecting traditional suppliers, Mexico sought to diversify its coffee import sources, and Vietnam emerged as a reliable alternative, offering competitive pricing and quality.  

Statistics also show Vietnam’s four-month coffee exports neared 666,000 tonnes, earning an estimated US$3.8 billion. While export volume dropped by 9.4%, the value surged by 51.8% compared to the same period from last year.

The average export price of Vietnamese coffee during the reviewed period stood at US5,700 per tonne, up 67.6% compared to the same period last year.

Germany remained Vietnam’s leading coffee export market, with export turnover hitting US$628 million, up 79.6%.

Other top buyers of Vietnamese coffee included Italy (US$307.6 million), Spain (US$292.5 million), the United States (US$236.8 million), Japan (US$260 million), and Russia (US$213.4 million).
