Vietnam's pepper inventory is around 50,000-55,000 tons, with traditional purchasing markets importing a large volume, causing a decrease in demand. From July 2024, Vietnam has imported 19,857 tons of pepper, primarily black pepper from Brazil, white pepper from Cambodia, and black pepper from Indonesia. The town of Loc Ninh in Binh Phuoc province has been granted a collective trademark certificate for pepper, reflecting the government's focus on sustainable agricultural development.
