Nestlé Vietnam warned that Vietnam’s low-cost coffee export model is losing competitiveness as the EU’s Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) approaches, with large and medium-sized operators facing a December 30, 2026 compliance deadline. Chairman and CEO Binu Jacob said at the Fortune Southeast Asia 500 Summit in Ho Chi Minh City on July 3 that cheap coffee will no longer be attractive for export, and that failing to meet the EU’s tightened sustainability standards could hamper Vietnamese coffee shipments. The intervention matters because the EU is a major destination for Vietnam’s coffee, and compliance costs and traceability requirements could reshape export margins for producers and traders. Watch for how quickly Vietnamese growers and exporters adopt sustainable, high-standard production and move up the value chain before the EUDR deadline.
