Vietnam Pepper mkt update 8th May 2023 – Week 18

 

Pepper prices continued to increase strongly last week with an increase of 8%. Thus, within 2 weeks, the price of pepper has increased by 12.5% from 68,500vnd - 77.000vnd.

The main reason is because of the huge demand from the Chinese market, besides the demand from the Middle East after a long time of Ramadan. The Middle East has increased buying volume from Vietnam quite large in the past week with spot orders.
Besides, there are 2 large corporations of Vietnam with abundant financial resources have purchased and hoarded pepper. This has pushed pepper prices to continue to rise.

Vietnam Pepper mkt update 1st May 2023 – Week 17

 

 

Last week, pepper price continued to increase impressively with an increase of 4.5%. Thus, pepper price in the past 2 weeks has increased by 7.5% from 66,500vnd - 71,500vnd.

The main reason is that Vietnam continues to export large quantities in April (forecast 30,000 tons), bringing the total export volume in 4 months to approximately 107,000 tons. Up to 25-30,000 tons over the same period in 2022.

With crop output forecasted at just over 200,000 tons, while exporting up to 107,000 tons within 4 months, We can see selling pressure from farmers, agents will not be much when there are 8-9 months until the new 2024 harvest.
Despite the relatively gloomy demand from different markets such as the US/ EU/ AFRICA/ ASIA, farmers, dealers and many analysts forecast and expect that pepper prices will have impressive growth momentum in the coming years.

Although the price of pepper has increased in recent years, profits are still not really atractive to farmers  when costs have seriously increased during the past time such as fertilizer costs, harvesting workers, etc.

Therefore, the harvested area of pepper has continuously decreased in the past 3 years and is expected to continue  to decrease when farmers rarely replant pepper but actively develop other fruit trees such as durian, avocado, jackfruit... etc.

Wheather
After the harvest, the weather in Vietnam becomes hot, especially in the key pepper regions of the country such as Daklak, Daknong, Dong Nai, Ba Ria Vung Tau... El nino phenomenon is forecasted to make pepper gardens affected.

Brazil pink pepper 2023

 

30 March 2023

Brazil has had some extreme weather which will effect the 2023 crop for pink pepper. The off-season was marked by exceptional rainfall as never seen before during October-February. This has caused losses of trees.

The plain areas were inundated, causising serious damage. The outlook is that in the coming season not more than 100 mtons of premium and first grade will become available. Blooming season has just started, first shipments are foreseen by the end of June or in July; depending on the weather conditions.

Pink peppercorns are a type of spice that come from the Brazilian pepper tree, which is also known as the Peruvian pepper tree or the rose pepper tree. Despite their name, they are not actually related to true peppercorns, which come from the Piper nigrum plant. Pink peppercorns have a sweet and slightly fruity flavor, with a mild peppery taste that is less pungent than black pepper. They are often used in spice blends and as a garnish for dishes, especially in French and Mediterranean cuisine. They also pair well with poultry, fish, and vegetables.
