In 2023, the Netherlands led European imports of frozen poultry meat, capturing a 13.58% share, followed closely by the United Kingdom at 12.88% and Germany at 11.35%. Despite changes, Spain, Romania, and France maintained their significant shares. Notably, several smaller markets like Portugal, Poland, Italy, and Cyprus showed positive growth rates over the year, while Luxembourg, Slovakia, and Estonia faced notable declines. Year-on-year, the European market saw varied growth, with an observed trend towards modest growth in exports to countries like Portugal and Poland.
Future trends to watch involve the increasing demand for frozen poultry in emerging European markets, particularly in Eastern Europe, driven by changing consumption patterns and increased affordability. Furthermore, policy changes concerning trade and tariffs within the EU could influence import dynamics, potentially impacting country-specific shares. Additionally, climate and disease outbreaks could challenge supply chains and affect import volumes. Keeping an eye on these political, economic, and environmental factors will be crucial for accurate future forecasting.
