Germany
Coffee prices in Germany are decreasing with major retailers like Lidl reducing prices for their own-brand coffee. Prices for coffee beans and ground coffee are now lower but still significantly higher than in 2023. The price drop results from reductions in global coffee commodity prices and increased competition among retailers.
The analysis indicates that coffee prices in Germany are undergoing changes with major retailers like Lidl announcing reductions. Evidence supports mixed details about current prices for coffee beans and ground coffee, though specific price claims such as a price of €10.49 to €11.49 per kilogram and €4.79 for half a kilogram require stronger evidence. There is notable evidence of a broader trend of decreasing coffee prices due to global supply conditions and competitive factors.
