Brazil’s bean market slows domestically while exports hit historic record

The Brazilian bean market began in December at a slow pace. According to researchers at Cepea (Center for Advanced Studies on Applied Economics), spot market negotiations continue to occur on a limited basis, mainly when there is a need to replenish stocks.

Carioca beans have prices supported by the quality of supply

In the case of carioca beans, prices continue to be influenced by demand behavior and the restricted supply of high-quality products. The limited availability of premium beans has kept quotations firm in the central producing regions, as many consumers prioritize this standard for year-end supply.

Black beans face pressure from wide availability

The scenario is different for black beans, which have seen price declines due to high domestic market supply. According to Cepea, the excess product available has reduced producers’ bargaining power and limited new negotiations. Even so, the bean continues to see good demand in some regions, especially in areas that traditionally consume this variety.

Brazilian bean exports reach a historic record in 2025

In the external market, Brazil set a record for bean exports. Data from Secex (Foreign Trade Secretariat) show that between January and November 2025, the country shipped 501.2 thousand tonnes, the highest volume recorded since the historical series began in 1997.

This performance reinforces the growing competitiveness of Brazilian beans in the international market, supported by product quality and the diversification of destination markets.
