| Pepper price today July 16, 2024: Second day maintaining price at 150,000-151,000 VND/kg |
Thus, pepper prices today recorded the second day of stability, fluctuating in the price range of 150,000 - 151,000 VND/kg.
Vietnam is benefiting from the wave of shifting orders from the US and has many advantages to boost pepper exports to China. Pepper is also one of the export items that is likely to reach a billion USD this year.
Last week, the rapid increase in domestic coffee prices has absorbed all the capital from pepper prices. Currently, in many areas, some agents are holding onto farmers' goods, and are now forcing farmers to sell their goods early.
Commenting on the market this week, experts said that there is no driving force to push prices up. However, domestic pepper prices have formed a new price range and are unlikely to decrease further. Pepper prices fluctuate around 150,000 VND/kg. If coffee prices adjust down this week after the past 2 weeks of hot growth, capital will flow back to pepper, expected to push pepper prices up to 155,000 VND/kg.

Maritime congestion continues to affect pepper exports. Container shipping rates have skyrocketed due to delays and rerouting.
In Indonesia, pepper cultivation has been on a downward trend over the past five years as farmers switch to more profitable crops such as oil palm. While current prices may encourage new plantings, a short-term recovery is unlikely.
Countries such as India, Sri Lanka, Malaysia and Cambodia have had relatively stable production over the past few years, without significantly impacting the overall change in global supply.
