Recently, the coffee market has experienced a great deal of volatility, driven by supply-side tightness and exacerbated by shifting U.S. tariff rates, which have added further uncertainty as global availability continues to tighten. This lecture will provide participants with an overview of the impacts of U.S. tariffs on the NY “C” market price. We will provide a background in economic theory of international trade and protectionist policies, a look at how tariffs have changed the speed and sources of coffee flowing into the U.S., and an analysis of their impact on the NY “C” market. The session will equip stakeholders across the coffee supply chain with a practical framework to understand and anticipate the effects of tariffs on the coffee market.
