Pepper price today April 20, 2025: No fluctuations

On April 17, the Pepper Industry Public-Private Partnership Conference 2025 was organized by the Pepper Association and

The Vietnam Spice Association (VPSA) held a conference in Ho Chi Minh City. At the conference, Mr. Le Viet Anh, Chief of Office of VPSA, said that by the end of the first quarter of 2025, Vietnam had exported 47,660 tons of pepper, including 39,853 tons of black pepper and 7,807 tons of white pepper, earning 326.6 million USD.

Although export volume decreased by 16.1% compared to the same period last year, export turnover increased sharply by 38.6%. The average export price of black pepper reached 6,711 USD/ton and white pepper was 8,617 USD/ton, up 94.9% and 73.9% respectively.

The US continues to be the largest export market, accounting for 25% of total turnover, and Vietnam remains the largest pepper supplier to the US, accounting for 77% of the country's pepper imports. However, the pepper industry is facing major challenges from the US's 10% import tax policy.

According to Ms. Hoang Thi Lien, Chairwoman of VPSA, some customers in the US have temporarily stopped buying to re-evaluate the situation. This tax rate puts Vietnamese pepper at a disadvantage compared to products from Brazil and Indonesia.

During the 90-day US tax deferral, Ms. Lien recommends that businesses take advantage of the opportunity to deliver goods as soon as possible. At the same time, they should proactively expand their markets to Europe, Asia, and the Middle East to reduce dependence on the US market in case the tax rate is not reduced after negotiations.

In addition, the pepper industry is also facing warnings about pesticide residues from China and the EU. VPSA recommends that businesses and farmers change packaging and undyed drying tarpaulins to avoid the risk of chemical contamination.

The Association will also periodically monitor and analyze residue trends and propose technical adjustments if necessary. In the long term, VPSA plans to implement a project to develop safe and sustainable pepper and improve product quality.
