The Netherlands leads the European import of pig fat free of lean meat, though it saw a decline of over 3% in 2023. Belgium and Italy showed notable increases, at over 8% and nearly 7%, respectively. Portugal experienced a significant 13% growth, while countries like Denmark and the UK faced substantial declines. Finland's impressive growth of nearly 50% stands out despite its small share.
