Experts predict that the end of 2025 will be a positive time for the pepper market when prices are likely to increase and demand will return. This is an opportunity for the Vietnamese pepper industry to optimize cultivation areas, improve export capacity and build a long-term strategy to maintain its position in the world market.

According to the International Pepper Association, global pepper production in the 2025–2026 crop year is likely to increase slightly to around 533,000 tonnes if the weather is stable and the replanting program continues. In Vietnam, output is forecast to increase by around 10% compared to the previous crop, reaching 190,000–193,000 tonnes if natural conditions are not too unusual.

VPSA believes that supply and demand remain balanced, however, factors such as taxes and technical barriers will strongly impact market strategy. From now until the end of 2025, import prices and demand are forecast to continue to increase. Entering 2026, when output may recover, pepper prices will be under downward pressure, especially in the context of difficult expansion of cultivated area because most of the land has been fully exploited.

VPSA recommends that businesses be proactive in managing warehouses and supplies, making reasonable use of reserves to meet increased demand at the end of the year and promote transactions. Strategic factors such as export taxes, transportation costs and regulations on origin are forecast to reshape the global market share structure. Despite facing many fluctuations, Vietnam still maintains its advantages thanks to stable quality and a long-standing export system.

World pepper prices today

Update on world pepper prices from the International Pepper Association (IPC), at the end of the most recent trading session, IPC listed the price of Indonesian Lampung black pepper at 7,136 USD/ton, and the price of Muntok white pepper at 9,717 USD/ton.

Brazilian ASTA 570 black pepper price was at USD 6,175/ton. Malaysian ASTA black pepper price remained stable at USD 9,200/ton; the country’s ASTA white pepper price reached USD 12,300/ton.

Today, Vietnam black pepper price is traded at 6,500 USD/ton for 500 g/l; 550 g/l at 6,700 USD/ton; white pepper price at 9,250 USD/ton.

A new report by Nedspice shows that the world pepper market is in a prolonged deficit, with global production falling by more than 30% in seven years to around 430,000 tonnes. Although Brazil continues to expand its planting area, major producing countries such as Vietnam, India and Indonesia have all recorded declines in production, indicating a clear supply contraction.

Global pepper demand weakened this year, especially from the US, which fell by about 30%. This trend caused Vietnam's pepper exports in the first 10 months to fall by 6%. However, the US's exemption of reciprocal tariffs on spices not grown domestically from November 13, 2025, could help demand recover in the near future.

Vietnam has increasingly relied on imports to meet re-export demand, with imports rising 32% to 38,000 tonnes, with Brazil doubling. However, inventories are still falling as production and imports are both lower than exports. Vietnam’s new crop output is forecast to reach just 153,000 tonnes due to adverse weather, following a decline in 2025 when output reached just 172,000 tonnes, nearly half the peak in 2018–19.

In the international market, Brazil is expected to harvest about 89,000 tons of pepper in 2025 despite labor shortages, while Indonesia is expected to harvest about 36,000 tons due to reduced inventories after a strong export season in 2024. These factors, along with weak demand, VAT issues and farmers' psychology of holding on to their stocks, have clearly affected domestic pepper prices in recent times.
