Pepper prices in Vietnam are stable, ranging from 47,000 to 50,000 VND / kg across different provinces. However, the International Pepper Association (IPC) reports a decrease in export volume in pepper-producing countries, except for Brazil, due to reduced demand in major markets from the Covid-19 pandemic. This has affected the pepper industry, with Vietnam likely not reaching its export target for 2020. The IPC anticipates that global pepper demand will remain low, leading to a quiet export market and potential price pressure due to increased global inventories.
