If it's a relatively pale brown and starts at the bottom then it's probably blossom end rot.
The direct cause is calcium deficiency, but this deficiency is usually caused by erratic or insufficient watering, rather than the soil lacking calcium. It is slightly odd that it should only affect one plant, though.
Otherwise, it could be that some manner of caterpillar is burrowing into the fruit, and then secondary infection is making them rot.

Blossom end rot sounds most likely, but another possible culprit is sunscald, especially if you're growing them in a greenhouse. Have a look at the pictures here:

I'd wager its blossom end rot too.

As an aside, my Sweet Peppers are doing Brill this year..not sure what is helping them
