Coffee prices surge as climate and trade shake global supply

Global coffee prices are surging, with roasted coffee in Germany up 43% compared to last year. Climate change is a major driver—droughts, frost, and unpredictable rainfall have devastated harvests, especially in Brazil, the world’s top coffee exporter. This has led to supply shortages and rising costs worldwide. Experts warn that without climate-resilient farming and infrastructure investments, prices may remain high. As demand grows and trade dynamics shift, your morning cup could become even more expensive.
