In the pepper industry, alongside premium whole peppercorns, Pinhead Pepper (light pepper) has become a preferred raw material for many processors and international buyers thanks to its competitive pricing, stable supply, and wide industrial applications. As one of the world’s leading pepper-producing countries, Vietnam plays a key role in supplying pinhead pepper to global markets.

What Is Pinhead Pepper?
Pinhead Pepper refers to small-sized, low-density peppercorns, typically ranging from 1mm to under 2mm, separated during the grading and density-sorting process. Although these peppercorns do not meet whole pepper export standards, they still retain the natural pungency, aroma, and essential oil content of black pepper.
Pinhead pepper is widely used as an economical and efficient raw material in food and spice processing industries.
