Update on pepper prices both domestically and globally on 04/22/2024
Globally, the pepper market on April 22 remains stable in various countries.
Specifically, the price of black pepper Lampung in Indonesia remains at $ 4,562/ton. Meanwhile, the price of white pepper Muntok in this country is maintained at $ 6,025/ton.
The price of black pepper Kuching ASTA in Malaysia remains stable at $ 4,900/ton; while the white pepper ASTA in this country is still priced at $ 7,300/ton.
In the Brazilian market, the price of black pepper ASTA 570 stands at $ 4,300/ton.
As for Vietnam, the export prices of black pepper, grades 500 and 550 g/l, remain at $ 4,200 and $ 4,300/ton, respectively. The export price of white pepper remains at $ 6,000/ton.
World pepper prices today continue to move sideways. According to IPC, the pepper market reacted differently last week, with only domestic black pepper prices in India and Malaysia seeing increases.
In 2023, US pepper imports decreased by 21.2% to just 69,052 tons - the lowest level in 9 years. The reason for this decline is attributed to the impact of a weak economy and high inflation, causing US consumers to tighten their spending.
Inflation in the US in March 2024 remained stronger than expected, which could delay the Fed's policy adjustment plans. However, interest rates are expected to decrease this year.
In its recently released World Economic Outlook report, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) raised its growth forecast for the US in 2024 to 2.7% from the previous 2.1% estimate in January, citing stronger-than-expected job creation and consumer spending.
The higher US economic growth is expected to stimulate consumption and pepper imports in the country in the near future, especially as pepper inventories in the US are low after two consecutive years of declining imports.
Thus, global pepper prices on 04/22/2024 remain stable compared to yesterday.
