Brazil gains ground as pepper supplier
This Monday (21) in your ANBA Bulletin: Brazilian pepper production and exports. The country is the second-largest global supplier of black pepper, behind only Vietnam, and has increased shipments to the Arab market.

The economic upturn is strengthening in the UAE, driven by rapid measures taken by the local government in the financial and health areas to contain the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Piper and Capsicum peppers are the main varietals produced, but black pepper (Piper Nigrum) is the top seller. Last year it accounted for 98% of pepper exports from Brazil, state foreign trade statistics center Comex Stat reported.
