The world pepper market on July 30 recorded a simultaneous price decrease in India, Indonesia and Vietnam. The period of strong price increases has slowed down, making suppliers and importers more cautious.
Pepper prices have fallen for several reasons. First, supply has increased significantly as Indonesia enters its main harvest season, making pepper more abundant in the market. This gives importers more options and puts downward pressure on prices of other exporting countries.
Second, demand in major markets such as the US, EU and China is showing signs of slowing down after a period of strong imports at the beginning of the year. Many businesses are temporarily suspending purchases in anticipation of further price drops, reducing global trading volumes.
Third, after a long period of rising prices, many countries have begun to take profits and sell large quantities of pepper they have stored, causing supply to increase faster than demand. In addition, high international shipping costs have also reduced profits, forcing exporters to adjust their selling prices to maintain orders.
Pepper prices are currently being hit by a double whammy of oversupply and weak demand. However, experts say the price drop is only short-term. In the long term, prices remain positive thanks to reduced cultivation areas, reduced output and low inventories.
