Having overcome the test of time over more than five decades of its establishment, the International Pepper Community (IPC) continues to thrive in becoming a dynamic organization and one of the leading figures of the industry by ensuring the sustainability and advancement of the global pepper industry.

It has been my privilege and honour to lead the IPC Secretariat for more than 3 years now and I will bid farewell to the IPC Secretariat, May this year. For me personally, it has always been a wonderful start and a beautiful end to an exciting journey in the pepper industry.

IPC ought to ensure its role as an effective player in the development of the global.

In 2025, IPC has formulated series of resolutions in the form of programmes and projects with the sole purpose for the betterment of the pepper industry stakeholders.

We are also formulating programmes and projects which would be catered to all the stakeholder of the industry both the supply and demand sides. We are always open for ideas, suggestions and feedback from the industry on how we can better improve our programmes and projects.
