Exports from the Spanish white layer pig sector have grown in the first five months of 2022 in many of the world’s most mature markets, demonstrating its external strength and the confidence generated by its companies and products.
Thus, of the 20 countries to which Spain exports the largest volume of pork, 18 of them have grown in volume and value in the period January-May 2022. In some of the cases, the increases that have occurred are very significant and reach three digits.
The Republic of China-Taiwan relationship stands out mainly, a country to which 23,793 tons have been exported in the first five months of 2022, 230.5% more than in the volume exported in the same period of 2021. The value of these exports was of 61.3 million euros, 181.7% more.
Very notable growth has occurred in:
- Poland (+100.6% in volume and 107 in value);
- Romania (+105.6% in volume and 96.4% in value);
- Hungary (+98.7% in volume and 103.8 in value);
- Japan (+95.8% in volume and 84.5% in value);
- South Korea (+94.2% in volume and 53.6% in value)
The only decreases in that list of 20 have occurred in Denmark and in China, a country in which, on the other hand, a decrease was already expected due to the recovery of its pig herd, which began in the last third of 2021.
