Here is our latest analysis of the global pepper market to help guide your procurement strategy.
Key prices remain largely stable, with Vietnam's black pepper ASTA Clean at $6,240/MT and Indonesia's IPC prices at $7,232/MT (black) and $10,109/MT (white). Brazil's harvest-season black pepper (ASTA 570) is at $5,850/MT, while Malaysia's ASTA black pepper holds at $9,250/MT.
Price Outlook & Strategy: The market is currently experiencing slow trading, and prices are expected to remain stable as we head into early next week. Looking further out, the significant harvest in Brazil is forecast to maintain this price stability, particularly for Vietnamese pepper, throughout the coming month. This quiet period may present a strategic purchasing window.
