According to forecasts, pepper prices on October 25 tend to increase sharply again in key regions. According to experts, the increase in domestic prices is mainly due to increased consumption demand, especially in export markets such as the EU, the US and China. Stable weather conditions in major pepper growing areas such as the Central Highlands and the Southeast have created favorable conditions for pepper production and harvesting to achieve high productivity.

The global pepper market saw little change last week, with demand picking up in major markets such as the US, EU and Asia, while the Middle East and China remained subdued. Inventory levels have fallen significantly, prompting farmers and dealers to limit sales as pepper prices eased slightly.
The unstable global economic situation is negatively affecting the global demand for pepper. Rising inflation and the risk of economic recession in many countries are causing consumers to tighten their spending, reducing the demand for non-essential items such as pepper.
In the short term, the pepper market is expected to continue to face many fluctuations. Pepper prices may remain stable or decrease slightly due to limited supply and no signs of strong recovery in demand. However, in the long term, when the world economy is more stable and climate change adaptation solutions are effectively implemented, the pepper market may recover and develop again.
