The global export market for lard, other pig fat, and poultry fat in 2023 showed a varied landscape across countries. The United States remained the leading exporter, although it experienced a minor decrease in volume. Notable growth was observed in Poland, Ukraine, South Africa, and the Czech Republic, indicating emerging players in the market. European countries like Germany and France sustained their positions with modest growth, while traditional exporters like Belgium and the Netherlands saw declines. Smaller markets such as Thailand and Romania showed significant increases, signaling potential for expansion.
