Pepper witnessed a firmer trend on tight availability of high bulk density pepper. On the terminal market, 68 tonnes of pepper were traded. The entire quantity was semi-processed pepper from Kerala’s Kannur and Wayanad districts. The material was being sold at ₹635/kg on one week credit, trade sources told BusinessLine. Spot prices went up by ₹300 a quintal to ₹61,800 (ungarbled) and ₹64,800. But, there were no sellers even at ₹670 a kg for heavy pepper, they said.
