 The Import-Export  Department  (Ministry of Industry and Trade) forecasts that world pepper prices will remain high in the short term due to limited supply. Brazil and Indonesia are in the harvest season, while world demand is not increasing strongly, along with China not buying much, leading to only a slight increase in prices.

In the long term, pepper export prices will remain supported due to the expected decrease in Vietnam's pepper output in the 2025 crop. Vietnam's pepper crop in 2025 is expected to be harvested almost entirely in February, with some regions extending to March and April, 1-2 months later than previous years, due to the impact of prolonged drought, making pepper supply increasingly difficult.

At the same time, the Import-Export Department forecasts that the Vietnamese pepper industry will benefit from high export prices due to limited supply. According to the Vietnam Pepper and Spice Association (VPSA), the amount of pepper in the population is almost gone, only remaining in agents and warehouses of enterprises.

The inventory from the 2023 crop carried over, plus the import volume in 2024, is about 40,000 - 45,000 tons (including informal imports), showing that the export source until the end of the year will be lower than every year and until March 2025 when the 2025 crop is expected to be harvested.

Figures from the General Department of Customs show that in the first 8 months of the year, Vietnam's pepper exports reached 182.93 thousand tons, worth 877.98 million USD, down 2.7% in volume, but up 42.8% in value over the same period in 2023 thanks to high prices.
