Rwanda has seen a rise in chili pepper production, driven by both domestic and international demand. The country's favorable climate and stable sanitary conditions are advantageous for chili pepper cultivation. Rwanda has recently emerged as a fruit and vegetable exporting nation, with chili pepper finding its way to markets in Germany and the UK. The country's ability to produce chili pepper throughout the year, due to the absence of winter, provides a competitive edge. Despite the local market's preference for yellow peppers, other varieties are also consumed. This season has seen an increase in pepper prices.
