Vietnam (coffee production)

Vietnam is one of the world's leading coffee producers, mainly growing robusta beans, which are more bitter and stronger than arabica. The country's favorable climate, diverse terrain, and large-scale plantations support efficient coffee cultivation and export. Coffee production is vital to Vietnam's economy, providing employment and contributing significantly to national income. Vietnamese coffee is known globally for its distinctive, full-bodied flavor, often used in popular beverages like iced coffee and cà phê sữa đá. The industry has grown rapidly since the late 20th century, making Vietnam a key player in the global coffee market.
