One of the first questions any business asks before switching to wholesale coffee is: "How much does it actually cost?" Whether you're a café owner in Cebu, a hotel procurement officer in Manila, or an office manager setting up a coffee program in Davao—understanding wholesale coffee pricing in the Philippines will help you budget smarter, avoid getting overcharged, and choose the right supplier.
Wholesale coffee in the Philippines runs ₱710 to ₱960 per kilo depending on the Arabica-to-Robusta ratio, ex-VAT. At 50kg and above every bean drops, so 100% Robusta falls to ₱680 and 100% Arabica to ₱930. Prices are per kilo, ex-VAT (12% VAT is added at checkout), and the minimum order is 1kg. Figures below are current as of publish — for the live numbers, always check the wholesale pricing page.
This guide covers everything that affects wholesale coffee prices in the Philippine market and what you should realistically expect to pay.

Key Factors That Determine Wholesale Coffee Prices
1. Bean Variety: Arabica vs Robusta
This is the single biggest price driver. Arabica beans command a significant premium over Robusta because they grow at higher altitudes, yield fewer cherries per tree, and require more careful processing. At Agross the gap is ₱710 per kilo for 100% Robusta against ₱960 for 100% Arabica, with blends filling the range between.

2. Origin and Sourcing Model
Green bean prices move with harvest conditions, bean grade and global commodity markets, and they can fluctuate season to season.
Import duties, freight and handling add another layer on top. Your supplier's sourcing model directly affects the price you pay.
3. Roast Level and Processing
Green (unroasted) beans are the cheapest form, but require a roaster on your end. Most businesses purchase roasted beans—either light, medium, or dark roast—which adds the cost of roasting, quality control, and packaging.
Agross roasts to our own spec. We pack every order fresh to order in Talisay City, Cebu, rather than holding old warehouse stock, and the published rates above already include that packing.
4. Order Volume
Most wholesale coffee suppliers in the Philippines offer tiered pricing, so the more you order, the lower your per-kilogram cost. Agross uses two tiers: 1–49kg and 50kg+. A café ordering 20kg a week pays the standard tier rate for Blend 7; consolidating into a 50kg order brings the price down to the bulk tier rate.
5. Packaging and Delivery
Packaging format affects cost per kilo, which is why the bulk tier is cheaper per kilogram than standard orders. Plain unbranded and printed private-label bags are available from set volume thresholds, at the same price per kilo as standard wholesale.
Delivery is charged separately and confirmed as part of your quote. Agross delivers same day across Metro Cebu on orders placed before 11 AM, covering Cebu City, Mandaue, Lapu-Lapu, Mactan, Talisay and Consolacion. Nationwide shipping to Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao takes 3–7 business days. Check the delivery areas before comparing total cost.
Which Bean Suits Which Business
| Bean Type | Price (1–49kg, ex-VAT) | Typical Business Use |
|---|---|---|
| 100% Robusta | ₱710/kg | Canteens, high-volume espresso, offices |
| Blend 2 or Blend 5 | ₱760–₱835/kg | Mid-tier cafés, restaurants, offices |
| Blend 7 or Blend 8 | ₱885–₱910/kg | Specialty cafés, hotels, restaurants |
| 100% Arabica | ₱960/kg | Specialty cafés, upscale dining, hotel F&B |
How to Calculate Your Weekly Coffee Cost
Here's a simple formula to estimate your weekly bean spend:
- Estimate your daily cup count
- Multiply by grams per cup (e.g., 18g for espresso, 12g for drip)
- Convert to kilograms (÷ 1,000)
- Multiply by your per-kg price (ex-VAT; add 12% VAT at checkout)
Example: A café serving 80 espresso drinks per day uses 80 × 18g = 1,440g/day = ~10kg/week. On Blend 7 at ₱885/kg (ex-VAT) that is about ₱8,850 a week; at 50kg and above the same beans move to the bulk rate.

Red Flags in Wholesale Coffee Pricing
- No published price list: If a supplier will not put rates in writing, you cannot compare.
- Unusually low prices: Often means low-grade beans, fillers, or old stock.
- No volume pricing: A serious supplier will reward loyalty and volume.
- Hidden freight charges: Always clarify whether pricing is ex-warehouse or delivered, and whether it's VAT inclusive or ex-VAT.
- No sample offer: Any reputable supplier should let you taste before committing to a bulk order. Agross samples are free for businesses buying or planning at least 10 kg a month, with no lock-in contract.
