In recent years, the rapid development of the Vietnamese coffee industry has been of interest to many international traders. From a country with low levels of coffee production, which was not known by many consumers, within 10-15 years Vietnam becamethe second largest coffee exporter in the world, after Brazil. It has approximately half a million hectares of coffee, of which 90% is traded, yielding about 800,000 tons of green coffee and as much as one million tons of green coffee in some years. Theturnover of coffee exports is between US$500-600 million. Coffee is therefore classified as one of the main agricultural products, second in importance after rice. The coffee industry also has a large workforce and has created many jobs in the country and rural areas.
