Earlier Report Observations

The market for beef, sheep or goat fat in Peru grew from 18.5 thousand tons in 2018 to 19.5 thousand tons in 2023, marking a 5% increase over the five-year period. This growth was not uniform, as the market volume contracted to 17.7 thousand tons in 2020 after a peak in 2019, before entering a steady recovery phase.

Domestic production remained relatively stable, fluctuating around 18 thousand tons annually. The temporary production dip in 2020 was followed by a rebound in subsequent years. In contrast, import volumes exhibited significant movement, declining sharply in 2019 and 2020 before surging from 364 tons in 2021 to 842 tons in 2023.

This rise in imports became the primary contributor to market expansion from 2021 onward, compensating for the flat domestic output. With exports remaining minimal throughout the period, the market's growth reflects increased domestic availability largely supplied from abroad.
