According to observers, pepper prices in July continued to increase slightly at a fairly stable rate, but export sales slowed down due to objective restrictions due to the Covid-19 epidemic. This also lasted through August because export ports in the south of our country temporarily received goods to Europe – America in limited volume because export goods were overcrowded.

Traders believe that the northern market’s increased buying demand for the upcoming National Day holiday will help ease this accumulation.
