Top #1 Coffee Exporting Country: Brazil — Global Leader

Brazil is the largest coffee exporting country in the world and has held that position for nearly two centuries, with its full HS 0901 figures kept as verified records on yTrade. Brazil accounts for close to 40% of world coffee production and typically supplies 40 to 50% of Arabica depending on the biennial crop cycle.

Brazilian shipments recovered in the second half of 2026 even after a soft start. Brazil exported 3.03 million bags of coffee in July 2026, up 9.9% year on year, though the first seven months still ran 5.9% behind 2025 at 20.90 million bags, reported by Comunicaffe citing CECAFE.

• Brazil supplies close to 40% of world coffee production: and 40 to 50% of global Arabica, which makes it the price-setter.
• Brazil exported 3.03 million bags in July 2026, up 9.9% year on year: a recovery month even as the seven-month total stayed 5.9% lower.
• Brazil's 2026/27 crop is forecast at a record 71.9 million bags: with exports projected to jump 30% to 49 million bags.

Top #2 Coffee Exporting Country: Vietnam — US$4.4 Billion

Vietnam is the second-largest of the major coffee exporting countries and the world's leading Robusta supplier, at roughly 20% of global coffee exports. Vietnam exported about 1.2 million tonnes of coffee for US$5.45 billion in the first seven months of 2026, with volume rising 10.8% while value declined 11.2% on lower prices,

Weather risk now hangs over the next crop. Vietnam's weather agency puts the odds of a very strong El Niño at 60 to 65%, centred on the Central Highlands that produce most of the country's Robusta.

• Vietnam exported 1.2 million tonnes for US$5.45 billion in seven months of 2026: volume up 10.8% while value fell 11.2% on lower prices, from VnEconomy
• Germany, Italy and Japan took 13.5%, 7.9% and 7.2% of Vietnamese coffee: while exports to China surged 76.1% year on year, from VnEconomy
• A very strong El Niño threatens the 2026-27 Central Highlands crop: at 60 to 65% probability, which supports Robusta prices, based on The Viet Media

Top #3 Coffee Exporting Country: Ethiopia — US$1.8 Billion

Ethiopia is the third-ranked origin in yTrade's dataset and the birthplace of Arabica, supplying premium washed and natural beans to specialty buyers. Ethiopian coffee draws on a deep genetic base and distinct regional profiles that command higher unit values than commodity-grade Robusta.

African supply is expanding across the wider region. World coffee production for 2026/27 is forecast at a record 189.7 million bags, lifted by record output in Brazil, Ethiopia, Uganda and Vietnam, based on USDA data, which strengthens the position of African origins among the countries exporting coffee worldwide.

• Ethiopia is the birthplace of Arabica and Africa's leading exporter: shipping premium washed and natural beans that carry higher unit values
• Record 2026/27 output lifts Ethiopia, Uganda and Vietnam: as part of a record 189.7 million bag global crop.
• African origins gain share among the largest coffee exporting countries: which widens sourcing beyond the two dominant suppliers, Brazil and Vietnam

Top #4 Coffee Exporting Country: Uganda — US$1.1 Billion

Uganda is Africa's fastest-rising coffee exporter and the world's fourth-largest Robusta producer, behind Vietnam, Brazil and Indonesia. Uganda earned a record US$2.3 billion from coffee exports in the 12 months to May 2026, as annual shipments climbed about 16% on higher volumes and firm international demand, from Uganda Coffee Development Authority.

Robusta anchors the country's export base and its export earnings. This type of coffee makes up roughly 80% of Uganda's coffee shipments and fetched an average US$4.29 per kg in late 2025, so Uganda's rise adds a genuine third Robusta origin alongside Vietnam and Indonesia.

• Uganda earned a record US$2.3 billion from coffee in the year to May 2026: with shipments up about 16% year on yea
• Robusta accounts for about 80% of Ugandan coffee exports: at an average US$4.29 per kg in late 2025
• Higher-yielding varieties are lifting output: replanting across 590,000 hectares supports Uganda's climb up the export ranking

Top #5 Coffee Exporting Country: Indonesia — US$926 Million

Indonesia is the world's third-largest Robusta producer and a growing specialty-Arabica origin, spread across Sumatra, Java and Sulawesi. Indonesia's agriculture minister set a target to raise annual coffee exports to about US$6.25 billion from roughly US$2.5 billion, through higher production and expanded downstream processing.

Domestic demand is reshaping the volume of coffee export, with green-bean exports are set to ease to 7 million bags in 2026/27 on strong home consumption and rising demand for specialty and ready-to-drink coffee, based on USDA data, so Indonesian supply increasingly serves its own market alongside export buyers.

• Indonesia aims for US$6.25 billion in annual coffee exports: up from about US$2.5 billion, through downstream processing and new markets.
• Green Robusta drives about 67% of Indonesian coffee export value: the fundamental earner across its island growing regions.
• Domestic demand trims exportable supply: green-bean exports are projected at 7 million bags in 2026/27.

What Are Major Coffee Export Types In 2026?

Green coffee under HS 090111, unroasted and not decaffeinated, led coffee export trade at US$9.85 billion, or 96.93% of tracked weight, from January to July 2026, powered by yTrade global trade data. Roasted coffee under HS 090121 followed at US$118.44 million, which confirms that unprocessed beans carry the trade.

• HS 090111, green coffee, not roasted: US$9.85 billion (96.93% of weight) — the raw bean that anchors global trade
• HS 090121, roasted coffee, not decaffeinated: US$118.44 million (1.17% of weight) — higher-value processed beans for direct retail
• HS 090122, roasted coffee, decaffeinated: US$3.78 million (0.04% of weight) — a small specialty line
• HS 090112, green coffee, decaffeinated: US$179.81 million (1.77% of weight) — raw beans processed to remove caffeine
• HS 090190, coffee husks and substitutes: US$10.04 million (0.10% of weight) — by-products and blends

#	HS Code	Product	Value (US$)	% of Weight
1	90111	Coffee, not roasted, not decaffeinated	9,853,313,069.99	96.93%
2	90112	Coffee, not roasted, decaffeinated	179,810,422.34	1.77%

5	90122	Coffee, roasted, decaffeinated	3,777,485.23	0.04%

Arabica and Robusta split the green-coffee trade by price and use. This type of coffee holds about 60% of the global market against Robusta's 40%, with Arabica prized for smoother flavour while Robusta carries more caffeine and anchors instant coffee and espresso blends, from Tasting Table.

Prices moved sharply through 2026 and shape export value across the major coffee exporting countries directly.

Vietnamese Central Highlands coffee traded at VND 93,000 to 93,800 per kg on 30 September 2026, easing about VND 200 on the day, while New York Arabica reached 278.60 cents per pound and London Robusta settled near US$3,367 per tonne, from Vietnam.vn, which is why value and volume can move in opposite directions across the leading exporters.

Who Are the Top Coffee Suppliers In 2026?

The top coffee suppliers verified on yTrade are Nestle Vietnam, Daklak September 2nd Import-Export, Vinh Hiep, H.T Nha Trang Logistics and Louis Dreyfus Company Vietnam, based on yTrade verified suppliers/buyers on our trade data platform.

Conclusion

The largest coffee exporting countries in 2026 rest on two pillars, with Brazil leading global supply near 40% of output and Vietnam second at US$4.39 billion of tracked shipments, ahead of Ethiopia and Uganda, almost entirely as green beans. Weather is the swing factor from here, since a very strong El Niño over Vietnam's Central Highlands could tighten Robusta supply while Brazil's record crop lifts Arabica. With origins moving season to season, yTrade opens the shipment-level records behind every exporter, product and destination so you can act as each move lands.
