In 2023, Germany led European sold production in prepared and preserved meat, meat offal or blood, valued at €13.839 billion. France followed with €8.6715 billion, while Spain recorded a significant growth of 5.9% year-on-year. Italy and the United Kingdom saw moderate growth at 2.75% and 0.57%, respectively. Poland experienced a slight growth at 0.35%. Smaller markets like Austria, Sweden, and the Netherlands also registered modest increases. Conversely, Latvia faced a decline of 3.74%. Over the past five years, trends indicate steady growth across most markets, reflecting evolving consumer demands and expanding production capacities.
Looking forward, demand for sustainable and ethically-sourced meat products, coupled with technological advancements in the sector, is expected to impact production patterns. Monitoring regulatory changes related to food safety and trade policies in the post-Brexit and post-COVID European landscape will be crucial. Additionally, changes in consumer preferences towards plant-based alternatives could influence traditional meat product markets.
