International beverage prices lapsed by 10% quarter-to-quarter in Q3 2025 just before global cocoa and coffee prices<\/u><\/a> recovered. This according to the World Bank<\/u><\/a> (WB)\u2019s beverage price index on December 2, 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report links the fall to a quarterly supply rally in cocoa and coffee that cooled respective prices against stability in tea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since November, however, coffee and cocoa have enhanced unit valuation, rendering the 10% beverage price dip probably short-lived.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thus, the World Bank expects international beverage prices to up by 18% annually in 2025 but to retreat by 7% in 2026. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The WB further expects beverage rates to down by 5% annually in 2027, signalling production rallies in tropical raw materials. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among these is coffee, with Arabica bean rates averaging $9 a kg wholesale in November 2025, 35% up year-on-year (y-o-y). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The World Bank projects 2025-26 Arabica supplies at 179 million bags, above 2024-25\u2019s 175.4 million bags. This could bring down 2025 prices by 13%, y-o-y.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Robusta meanwhile could ease pricing in 2026 by 2% annually as production rallies, eating into current wholesale rates of $5\/kg (November 2025).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cocoa Prices Rebound  <\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The same informs cocoa, whose futures in New York finally recovered by 12% weekly on December 2, to $5,550 a tonne<\/u><\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beforehand in late November 2025, global rates for raw cocoa beans had bottomed out to a 24-month low.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although only half 2024 highs, the rebounding rate illustrates the rapid market effect of production shifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The International Cocoa Organization (ICCO) on November 28 lowered 2024-25 global output from 4.84 million tonnes to 4.69 million tonnes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the down-revision instantly favored market prices, it sent surprise across the board due to some sharp cuts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ICCO slashed 2024-25 global cocoa surplus to just 49,000 tonnes from an earlier February 2025\u2019s surplus projection<\/u><\/a> of 142,000 tonnes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Production leader Ivory Coast is steering the changing face of cocoa prices partly due to a promising 2025-26 season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arrivals in Ivorian ports between October 1 and November 30 nevertheless dipped by 2.1% y-o-y, supporting prices for now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With such production movements in leading global raw material sources, beverage prices will no doubt continue changing. The data section below examines these changes in index terms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

World Beverage Prices Index\u00a0Statistics\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Beverages like coffee, tea and cocoa base their pricing on production and price movements of their respective raw materials. The World Bank<\/u><\/a>, among others, publishes monthly beverage price index to track these changes. In its latest Q3 2025 index on December 2, the WB put the combined index at 10% down quarter-to-quarter. While tea prices stabilized that quarter, those of cocoa and coffee fell. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
