Pepper price at origins remained stable, both local as well as fob price, except in India.

In India, local price of black pepper increased almost daily from INR 68,200 per 100 Kg at the beginning of the week to INR 68,900 at the week's close. In dollar terms however, the price was relatively stable due to weakening of local currency.

IMPORT OF PEPPER BY CANADA:
During the last ten years, annual import of pepper by Canada was around 6,000 Mt. Out of this around 55% was whole pepper and 45% ground pepper. In 2015, Canada imported 6,288 Mt of pepper, comprising of 3,532 Mt of whole and 2,754 Mt of ground pepper, increased by 6% from 5,950 Mt in 2014.

During January - March 2016 Canada has imported 1,555 Mt of pepper (675 Mt of whole and 679 Mt of ground pepper) showing a marginal increase of 1% from the same period of last year. Up to 2011 India was the main source of whole pepper for Canada, but since 2012 Vietnam has dominated pepper import of the country. United States remained the main source of ground pepper for Canada.
