In 2023, the poultry meat stock in the United Kingdom was estimated at 235.0 thousand metric tons. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 suggests a steady increase in poultry meat stock, with values going from 251.0 thousand metric tons to 308.0 thousand metric tons. This represents a cumulative annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 5% over this period.
Year-on-year growth shows consistent increases: about 6% from 2024 to 2025, 5% from 2025 to 2026, and similar increments onwards indicating stable demand and/or supply. It's important to monitor how trends in consumer preference for white meat and possible fluctuations in production might affect future stock levels. Trade policies and sustainability practices will also be critical as they shape the industry's landscape.
