Assessment and forecast
Many experts predict that domestic pepper prices may increase again in the last two months of the year when global import demand increases sharply to serve the Christmas and New Year holiday season. World purchases during this period typically increase by 10-15% compared to previous months, while domestic supply is running low and the new harvest has not yet begun.
According to data from IPC and the Center for Industrial and Trade Information (VITIC - Ministry of Industry and Trade), the pepper market in early November 2025 recorded mixed developments between producing countries. Vietnam stands out with the trend of domestic prices continuing to increase thanks to stable demand - limited supply, while export prices remain balanced, reflecting the stable state of the market.
