CIGARETTE CSSIA MKT IN VIETNAM SEPT 10

Price of cigarette cassia is continuously rising because the recovery rate of cigarette cassia from tree is lower than the main season and price of cigarette cassia will take on other types of cassia.

This August season is short while exporters have received many orders for cigarette cassia. Quantity of goods in the future will be scarce, the price will continue to rise, so if you have demand, you should buy at this time for the best price. Next crop is in March, 2021.

VIETNAM SPICES MARKET UPDATE 17TH AUGUST 2020 – WEEK 34

 

PEPPER
Last week, the pepper market increased about 2% with demand from China and the Middle East. The USA still shows a relatively small demand and only accepts to buy long time shipment orders while almost Vietnam exporters hesitate or withdraw. The EU is on holiday so demand continues to be quiet. We hope the market will be better next time when some countries reopen again.  In addition, Russian have found vaccines/India and the USA are also testing many vaccines in the final stage. Hope everyone/all of the world will be healthy, starting a new business cycle soon.

Current weather in Vietnam; After fluctuating and flooding, the weather is currently well evaluated in key pepper areas such as Daknong & Daklak. Impacts of the 2021 pepper crop are likely to be low in these two key provinces. We will send more information after the survey next October.

 Indonesia; According to the information received, the heavy rain and flood took place on a large scale, so the crop heavily affected both black and white pepper. Currently Indonesian prices are at a very high level with a reference price of $ 2,550 – 2,650 LASTA and $ 4,150 for FAQ white pepper.

 Brazil; Currently, it still offers competitively, but mainly delivered in quarter 4/2020

 

CASSIA
Heavy rain and flooding happen in the largest cinnamon area in Vietnam. Therefore, the harvest for the 2020 crop is affected and the price of cinnamon is likely to remain stable as demand from EU/USA/India/Bangladesh still supports the market.

 

STAR ANISE
The amount of inventory is still tight. The price is expected to be stable or increase in the coming time.

VIETNAM PEPPER SITUATION AUGUST 2020

 

17^TH AUGUST 2020

In the first 7 months, Vietnam exported 186,160 tons of pepper (166,669 tons of black pepper, 19,491 tons of white pepper).

First half of August, Vietnam exported 7,215 tons of pepper and is forecast to reach at least 15,000 tons in August bringing the total pepper exports to 201,160 tons (180,169 tons of black pepper and 20,991 tons of white pepper).

Thus, we can have a rough look at the export pepper data of 8 months of 2020 as follows;

 

- Exported 180,169 tons of black pepper (1)

- Exported 20,991 tons of white pepper (2)

- Loss weight when processing white pepper 25%; 6,997 tons (3)

- Domestic consumption; 8 - 10,000 tons annually (4)

- Loss weight when processing ground pepper is about 5%; 1,000 tons (5)

 

Total exported and domestic consumption… in the first 8 months 2020 as;

 

(1) + (2) + (3) + (4) + (5) = 219,157 tons (X)

 

As many source and reports from the beginning/middle of this year from Exporter/Processor/IPC/VPA…;

 

- Carry over 2020 is about 20%. Estimated at 80,000 tons (a)

- Crop size 2020; from 230 - 245,000 tons (b)

- Imported from Brazil/Indonesia/Cambodia; 30,000 tons (c)

 

Therefore, the total quantity expected to be used for export 2020 remains;

 

(a) + (b) + (c) = 355,000 tons (Y)

 

So in theory, then;

 

1.      Quantity of pepper used for export for next 4 months from September to December (excluding carry over last year (a) 80,000 tons) as below;

 

(b) + (c) - X = 245,000 + 30,000 - 219,157 = 55,843 tons.

 

This number is easily achieved in the last 4 months of 2020 and certainly the inventories of the previous years will gradually reduce. The total crop size of Vietnam pepper 2020 is not enough for export. It’s quite reflective upon the situation after 5 years back as from 2016.

 

2.      However, if including inventory of 80,000 tons (a), the total quantity will be used for export for next 4 months from September to December as below;

 

(Y) - (X) = 355,000 - 219,157 = 135,843 tons.

 

Thus, the total quantity used for export is plentiful because next 4 months definitely the total quantity to export can not exceed 70.000 tons . However, please note; the inventory for pepper in Vietnam is at 15 - 20% in every year. It is considered to be largely frozen inventory and its concentrate to exporters, middleman and rich farmers stock. These inventories are less pressured to sell if the price is not attractive enough (lower than inventory price – maybe very high).

 

Note; The data above is our research and it’s for reference only because the statistical tool has many shortcomings and limitations.
