Timut pepper, a name banned since 1945 by ordinance

The historic ordinance of 1945 marked a significant turning point in the pepper industry in France. It categorically states that only Piper Nigrum, the classic black pepper , white pepper, red pepper and other piper varieties may be referred to as "pepper". These strict regulations were put in place to clarify terms and names related to spices.

However, this ordinance also opened the way to a challenge for small businesses and lovers of Timut Pepper. While this exceptional Nepalese spice can no longer be marketed in France under the simple name "pepper", French and foreign competitors are authorized to use the name "Timut Pepper". This situation has created a complex competitive context, where Timut Pepper must distinguish itself not only by its unique flavor but also by its name, to find a place in the market.

The Comptoir de Toamasina following an administration control in 2021 was prohibited from using the term pepper timut when 95% of websites and companies selling for millions of euros per year, can use it. 'to use. We have lost 90% of our sales since our compliance. The aim of this note is to be able to go up in the ranking at Google level and use the keyword which is requested every day by thousands of French people.

The 1945 ordinance thus illustrates the delicate balance between the protection of French traditions and openness to foreign influences in the field of gastronomy. She reminds us that behind each culinary name, there are important cultural and economic issues.

Farmers in the Mahabharat mountains will harvest it according to the information we have had on Nepalese sites. He explains that it is harvested by farmers by hand.
