Black Pepper - Brazil Pricing Overview

Week 33/2023

Brazil Pepper started at lows of BRL 11/kg for raw about $2550-2750 FOB range beginning this year, heading firm towards Q2 until it reached its expected weak spot beginning Q3 - the harvesting season.
All attention is with Brazil with demand activities mostly from Asian countries.
However, price softening did not last longer as price moves further up at level BRL 14-14,50/kg – an uptrend by about 18% from beginning year, 10% higher from last year same period recorded.

Contrary to pricing movement from last year, Brazil today appears to be siding strongly to an upward trend with reports of difficulties in procuring raw material from farmers not lower than BRL 14,50/kg having more interest to keep their pepper stocks rather than to sell immediately despite earlier reports of a good crop volume this year.
