Coffee farmers earn Ksh 41.6B as NCE records stronger 2025/26 season

Coffee farmers in Kenya earned Ksh 41.63 billion from sales at the Nairobi Coffee Exchange (NCE) during the 2025/2026 coffee year, marking a significant improvement in returns compared to the previous season. The earnings were generated from the sale of about 47 million kilogrammes of coffee between October 1, 2025, and September 30, 2026, with 770,034 bags traded through the auction.

The NCE report attributes the stronger performance to improved coffee prices and market demand, with relatively firm prices during much of the trading period.
