Compre­hen­sive Market insight

Pepper trade has been at the heart of the family for over 160 years. This wealth of experience supplemented with our close trusting relationships to our partners around the globe allows us to foresee early changes of market conditions. This unique insight coupled with our tailor-made data-driven analytics enable us to make market developments predictable and enable better planning to our customers.

the right price

Well-founded, fair and reliable

The price of pepper is influenced by a number of factors:

  • Local pepper prices at origin (in local currency)
  • Currency exchange rates
  • Cost of transportation, financing, insurance and storage

As a consequence, the pepper price is volatile and hard to predict. In this complex structure we support you as your reliable partner – with our unparalleled market insight, years of experience, targeted analytical expertise and clear principles.

Our guiding principle: The right price equals the contracted price.

Why is that?

  1. Because it is the most competitive price that we are able to offer at the time of purchase.
    We carry out daily market analysis using a range of data-based evaluation tools and chart analyses. We also facilitate continuous communication with our global network of partners. This combination of evaluation techniques and decades of experience allows us to accurately assess price developments.
  1. Because it holds at the time of delivery a guarantee applicable to every single contract.
    The price of pepper is subject to volatility. In consequence there is a strong possibility that it may be significantly higher at the time of delivery compared to the price at the time the contract was concluded.

Our prices are fixed, remain stable, and are never adjusted in retrospect. We guarantee our customers transparent, well-founded, fairly calculated prices — Our word is our bond.
