Brazil is the largest coffee producer globally
Brazil has dominated the world’s coffee production for over 150 years, and today it still produces roughly one‑third of the entire planet’s coffee supply. Its vast coffee plantations cover around 27,000 km², mainly across Minas Gerais, São Paulo, and Paraná—regions with near‑perfect growing conditions.
In 2022, Brazil produced approximately 3.2 million tonnes of coffee, more than double the output of second‑place Vietnam. This massive scale keeps Brazil firmly at the top of global production rankings year after year.
The country’s coffee industry is deeply woven into its economy and culture, with both arabica and robusta varieties thriving there. Arabica makes up the majority of Brazil’s output, contributing to the smooth, nutty flavour profiles the country is known for.
