In 2023, the sold production of salted, in brine, dried or smoked pig meat in the UK was 1.117 billion Euros. From 2024 to 2028, forecasts show a steady increase, reaching 1.1218 billion Euros. This demonstrates a consistent annual growth, with a year-on-year increase of approximately 0.09%, and a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the five years of around 0.09%. These figures suggest limited but stable growth in this sector.
Future trends to watch for include potential influences from Brexit on the pork industry, changes in consumer dietary preferences towards meat consumption, and evolving trade policies and relationships that could impact import and export dynamics.
