Latest domestic pepper price list dated August 22, 2024. Unit: VND/kg
Domestic pepper prices today continue to increase by 1,000 - 3,000 VND. With a 3-day increase in a row, the price of this agricultural product has reached 144,000 VND/kg.
According to data from the General Department of Vietnam Customs, Vietnam's pepper exports by the end of May 2024 reached 109,330 tons with a value of 469 million USD, down 16.8% in volume but increased by 15. 4% in value compared to the same period in 2023.
Meanwhile, China's return to purchasing goods also has a strong impact on pepper prices. Specifically, in May 2024, the amount of pepper exported to the Chinese market reached 3,137 tons; increased 4.8 times compared to the previous month and is the highest level achieved in the past 11 months.
Although prices have increased, businesses still have difficulty purchasing raw materials because pepper growers expect prices to continue to increase. Farmers in the Central Highlands and Southeast provinces have high income from durian and coffee, so they have enough financial capacity to store pepper. Many are even willing to store it for up to 2-3 years, not in a hurry to sell it.
Thus, the domestic pepper price on August 22, 2024 is trading around 142,000 - 144,000 VND/kg.
