The average export price of pepper reached about 3,420 USD/ton in 2023, down 19.4% compared to 2022. It is forecast that pepper export prices in 2024 will increase due to reduced production and inventory at the lowest level in many years.

Global pepper production for the 2023-2024 season will decrease as production from pepper-producing countries is estimated to decrease.

Vietnam exported all of its harvests in 2023, a portion of which was taken from imports as well as inventories from the previous year. As a result, inventories in 2023 moving to 2024 will be at the lowest in recent years. It is expected that in 2023, Vietnam’s pepper exports will reach 250,000 tonnes.
