Coffee is one of the most-consumed beverages globally and is a daily ritual for millions of people.

While coffee drinkers live all over the globe, only a handful of countries produce most of the world’s coffee.

This infographic highlights the 10 largest producers of unroasted (green) coffee beans and their share of global coffee production in 2024, based on data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

The Top 10 Coffee Producing Countries Globally

Most of the world’s coffee comes from the “coffee belt”—a horizontal geographical region that stretches along the equator between the Tropic of Capricorn and the Tropic of Cancer.

From this region, the top 10 coffee producers control nearly 90% of the annual global coffee supply. In the data table below is the full breakdown of coffee production by country in 2024:

Brazil is the world’s largest coffee producer, making up 38% of global supply. Together, Brazil and Vietnam produce more than half of the world’s coffee annually. These two countries are also the largest exporters of coffee.

However, the two countries produce different varieties of coffee. Brazil primarily produces arabica coffee, whereas Vietnam specializes in the more heat-tolerant robusta variety.

Similarly, Colombia—the third-largest producer—is one of the few countries in the world that grows only arabica coffee, thanks to favorable climatic conditions.

Overall, five of the 10 largest coffee producers are from South and Central America, highlighting both the importance and popularity of coffee from these regions.

The Rise in Coffee Prices Since 2024

Coffee drinkers are likely to face higher prices for their daily cup of joe in 2025, largely due to supply issues in South America.

The lingering impact of the El Niño phenomenon left Brazil in a state of prolonged drought spanning most of 2024. In turn, the warmer-than-normal temperatures have hurt coffee production, and Brazil’s 2025/26 coffee crop is forecast to hit a three-year low.

Driven by these concerns, arabica coffee prices have more than doubled since the start of 2024 and are sitting near all-time highs beyond $4 per pound. However, the World Bank forecasts that prices are likely to cool off and stabilize through the 2025–2026 period as production picks up.
