The import of frozen sheep carcasses and half carcasses to the US is projected to increase steadily from 2024 onwards, with growth rates in the range of 3-4% annually. The value stood at 36.867 million USD in 2024, representing a continuation of this growth trend. Over the five-year period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is anticipated to align closely with the year-to-year increases, suggesting stable market demand. This indicates a growing consumer interest and potentially favorable trade conditions.
Looking to the future, trends to monitor include:
- Culinary trends influencing demand levels, particularly in ethnic and gourmet cuisines.
- Trade agreements and tariffs impacting import costs and volumes.
- Global supply chain efficiencies and challenges.
