VIETNAM PEPPER MARKET UPDATE 4th MAY 2021 – WEEK 18

PEPPER;

 

The market opened for the 18th week with the price trend going sideways, the disease situation is still quite serious in many different countries, causing anxiety for the whole market. However, there still sees good demand from different markets such as EU / ASIA / USA and even the Middle East. Consumption demand from China in April was generally low due to the tightening of the disease control border. The border between Cambodia and Vietnam is still closed, so it is forecasted that the pepper from Cambodia will not be transferred to Vietnam / Thailand / China as usual.

 

Currently, the raw material from farmers / collectors has a very fast delivery speed. That's why domestic agents and exporter / manufacturers continue to lack local liquidity. Many processors / exporters facing cash flow issue so domestic market temporary slow last 2 weeks.

 

Ramadan Festival & China national holiday will be finished next few more days, so it is likely that demand will be coming more strongly in the next couple weeks.

 

Ocean Freight kept at high cost and space of container continued tight especially to the USA and Canada.

 

Forecast Vietnam currency is firm / steady against the USD until the end of the second quarter.
