The sales of processed or cured pork made in US slaughtering plants are forecasted to increase from $3.8562 billion in 2024 to $4.0612 billion by 2028. From 2023 to 2024, the sales appear poised for growth, reflecting a stabilizing demand, with consistent year-on-year increases in percentage terms.
