PEPPER MARKET REPORT - KEY HIGHLIGHTS


By the third week of December, the global pepper market displayed mixed price movements across major producing countries, reflecting varied domestic dynamics and external market conditions.

In India, both domestic and international pepper prices recorded a moderate downward adjustment compared with the previous week. This movement was partly influenced by a depreciation of approximately 1 percent in the Indian Rupee, which stood at INR 90.67 per USD during the reporting period.

Indonesia maintained stable domestic and international pepper prices throughout the week, indicating balanced market conditions and consistent supply-demand dynamics.

In Malaysia, domestic pepper prices experienced an upward movement, while international prices remained unchanged. This trend reflected sustained overseas demand amid relatively moderate supply conditions.

Sri Lanka’s domestic pepper market continued to demonstrate stability for the fourth consecutive week, supported by steady buyer interest and unchanged market fundamentals.

Both domestic and international Vietnamese pepper markets remained stable and steady over the course of the week, suggesting a period of market consolidation.

Similarly, prices of Brazilian black pepper, Cambodian black pepper, and Chinese white pepper remained stable and unchanged during the reporting week, indicating relatively calm trading conditions in these origins.

From January to October 2025, Cambodia recorded total pepper exports of 4,860 metric tonnes. Viet Nam remained the primary destination, absorbing 3,859 metric tonnes, followed by Germany, India, South Korea, and France, underscoring Cambodia’s diversified export outreach across key international markets.
