ReutersDec 15, 2025 9:23 PM

- Brazil's coffee exports in early December fell 5.1% from a year earlier, a smaller decline when compared to the previous months after the U.S. removed tariffs on coffee, Brazilian government data showed on Monday.

  • Daily shipments in December's first 10 business days averaged 9,125 tons, down from 9,612 tons in the same period of 2024.

  • In November, when U.S. tariffs were still affecting the Brazilian coffee, exports fell 25.6% year-on-year.

  • President Donald Trump had imposed steep tariffs on U.S. imports of Brazilian goods in August over what he has called a "witch hunt" against former President Jair Bolsonaro.

  • He lifted tariffs on some goods, including coffee last month, due to worries about U.S. inflation and following talks with Brazil President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.

  • Brazilian industry group Cecafe expects improvements in coffee exports this month.

  • The U.S. is traditionally the main market for Brazilian coffee, the world's largest exporter.
