World pepper prices remain stable.
The international pepper market saw no new price adjustments in the trading session of April 24, 2026. The International Pepper Association (IPC) listed Indonesian Lampung black pepper at US$7,047/ton. Brazilian ASTA 570 black pepper reached US$6,000/ton, and Kuching black pepper from Malaysia remained at US$9,300/ton.

Vietnam's pepper production is forecast to decline sharply.
Vietnam's pepper production for the 2026 crop is estimated to reach only about 170,000 to 180,000 tons. This figure represents a decrease of approximately 15% to 20% compared to the 2025 crop. This decline in supply stems from the negative impact of weather, the aging of pepper plants, and farmers' trend towards crop diversification.
The El Niño phenomenon increases the risks to coffee and pepper supplies, causing futures prices to frequently be factored in by weather-related risks. Vietnam remains a major global supplier of pepper, but supplies are showing clear signs of tightening after the harvest.
Advantages of transportation and logistics for Brazilian pepper
The current Brazilian pepper market is quite stable and not under pressure from sell-offs by producers. Supply from Brazil is brought to market in a controlled manner thanks to its advantageous sea transport capabilities.
Brazil's transatlantic shipping route is shorter, resulting in faster delivery times to Europe compared to Southeast Asian countries.
Brazil's logistical advantages make it a reliable source of supply, especially as global shipping routes remain affected by geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. High shipping costs lead buyers to prioritize planned purchasing strategies from suppliers with stable transportation networks.
