Read MoreThere are many challenges faced by the pepper industry, but a more relevant one in today's time isnthe environment in which all the players in the industry has been operating. In the recent years this has fluctuated drastically making it difficult for farmers, traders and end consumers. The prices have skyrocketed from $2600/mt to $9,900/mt over a five year period since 2009. No industry can thrive under such speculative runs.
Lack of information on quality and regulatory requirements in the consuming countries and not having a broader perspective on supply/demand by many in the industry are reasons for these fluctuations. As a community we can bring in a more stable environment by sharing information amongst us, enabling all to make informed decisions. This applies equally to product quality, food safety, regulatory conformances, supply & demand.
Read MoreDistinguished speakers from the industry such as McCormick, Nedspice, Griffith, Kancor Mane etc., and other spice organizations such as ESA, ASTA, Eurofins, etc., will be sharing valuable information on new developments in the market, thus, giving the entire industry valuable insights into the consuming countries’ requirements and regulations. Other issues which will be touched upon by distinguished speakers and further proactively deliberated by delegates are related to food safety and security, traceability, volatility of markets, weather and its effects to the crops, etc.
This is an event where key persons from prominent industries will converge to listen to and discuss the theme as well as to meet business associates. Where can you get a better platform for you to meet key industry players and network with them. Cultivate an ambience of trust and co-operation with them and pursue higher business goals.
