Pepper price today November 15, 2025 increased by 500 VND/kg in some localities

Pepper prices today, November 15, 2025, increased by 500 VND/kg in some localities, while the Indian market decreased sharply due to the influx of Brazilian pepper, disrupting the entire supply chain.

Domestic pepper price today November 15, 2025 increased slightly

On the morning of November 15, the pepper market recorded an increase of 500 VND/kg in Dak Lak and Dak Nong, raising the purchase price to 146,000 VND/kg. In Binh Phuoc , the price also increased to 144,500 VND/kg. Meanwhile, Chu Se (Gia Lai), Ba Ria - Vung Tau and Dong Nai kept the same price from 144,000 to 144,500 VND/kg.

This slight increase occurred in the context that many large growing areas were still heavily affected by storm No. 13 and floods. Gia Lai alone recorded more than 11,861 hectares of crops flooded, of which nearly 49 hectares of pepper, coffee and perennial trees were knocked down. The damage has made farmers worry that the new harvest after Tet may decrease if the plants do not recover in time.

Pepper industry faces many fluctuations, global output may decrease

According to the Import-Export Department, world pepper output in 2025 may decrease due to unfavorable weather in many major growing countries. However, the global supply chain is still capable of meeting demand and may recover to 533,000 tons in 2026 if favorable conditions return.

In Vietnam, prolonged rains and floods increase the risk of reduced productivity in the Central Highlands and the Southeast. Replanting and restoring pepper gardens in the final period of the year is considered a decisive factor to stabilize output for the 2026 crop.

World pepper prices increased slightly in Indonesia and Brazil

According to the International Pepper Community (IPC), the price of Indonesian Lampung black pepper reached USD 7,108/ton, up 0.13%. The price of Muntok white pepper increased similarly to USD 9,745/ton. Brazil was at USD 6,175/ton, up 1.23% for ASTA 570 black pepper, while Malaysia was stable at USD 9,200/ton for black pepper and USD 12,300/ton for white pepper.

Vietnamese pepper prices remain stable at a high level. Black pepper 500g/l is traded at around 6,400 USD/ton, 550g/l is at 6,600 USD/ton. White pepper prices are at 9,050 USD/ton, maintaining a competitive position in the region.

Indian market in turmoil over Brazilian pepper — prices fall from 700 to below 650 Rupees/kg

The most notable development is in the Indian market. The US increased import tax on Brazilian pepper to 50%, forcing Brazil to find an alternative market, and a large amount of this country's pepper flooded into India via Sri Lanka. Despite being 17,000 km apart, this cheap source of goods has pushed the price of Indian pepper from over 700 Rupees/kg to below 650 Rupees/kg in a short time.

India, on the other hand, cannot limit pepper imports due to FTA commitments. Sri Lanka is allowed to export 2,500 tons of pepper duty-free and a large amount with a preferential tax of 8% under SAFTA, making it easy for Brazilian pepper to “slip through the door” into the domestic market.

Despite a sharp 30–35% drop in domestic supply, prices have not rebounded, putting huge pressure on farmers and traders. This situation has raised concerns about the future of the pepper industry in Kerala and other major producing regions.
