The objective of this study was to analyze the competitiveness of Brazilian exports in the world coffee market, from 2000 to 2018, in comparison to the third world producer and exporter, Colombia. The data were collected in the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture), UN COMTRADE (United Nations Comtrade), FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations) and WTO (World Trade Organization) sites. The methodology used was based on the Revealed Symmetric Comparative Advantage Index (RSCA), Concentration Ratio (CR), and on the Regional Orientation Index (ROI). The results revealed that both Brazil and Colombia presented comparative advantages for coffee. In relation to CR, Brazil presented concentration and Colombia deconcentration of exports. The ROI indicated orientation of coffee exports from Brazil to Germany, Italy and the United States.
