In November, Brazil, a global coffee leader, boosted its exports by 15.4%, shipping out 4.33 million 60-kilogram bags.
The Coffee Exporters Council (Cecafé) reported this significant growth. Notably, robusta coffee, known as conilon in Brazil, surged by 678%.
It accounted for 856,000 bags, making up 20% of the total exports for the month.
On the other hand, arabica coffee comprised 75% of the shipments, totaling 3.24 million bags, despite a slight decline of 3.4% from last year.
Soluble coffee represented 5% of November’s exports, with 231,300 bags shipped.
While the quantity of coffee exports increased, the revenue from these shipments fell by 10.2%, earning $810 million.
From January to November, Brazil exported 35 million coffee bags. This quantity is a modest 3.2% drop from the previous year’s 36.17 million.
Nevertheless, the total revenue from these 11 months reached an impressive $7.22 billion.
The United States stood out as the primary market for Brazilian coffee, importing 5.47 million bags.
This figure represents 15.6% of Brazil’s total coffee sales during this period. This relationship underscores the significant global demand for Brazilian coffee.
