Reduced output from Brazil and Vietnam, the world’s two leading pepper producing countries, has pushed international pepper prices up continuously in the first months of this year. In particular, the market has witnessed unprecedented volatility in the second quarter of this year.
Accordingly, the export price of black pepper from Indonesia and Brazil increased by 93.1% and 2.3 times respectively in a short period from the beginning of the second quarter to mid-June, while Vietnam also recorded an increase of 70 – 83% during the above period.
In the following weeks, the market corrected and stabilized somewhat, but still fluctuated at its highest level in the past 8 years.
Domestically, pepper prices also witnessed a record increase from VND92,000-94,000/kg from early April to a peak of VND180,000/kg on June 11, an increase of 90% in just over two months and the highest level in the past 8 years. Pepper prices then adjusted down to VND153,000-157,000/kg at the end of June.
Thus, by the end of the second quarter, domestic pepper prices had increased by about 93% compared to the beginning of the year and 2.3 times higher than the same period last year.
