Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2020, the market volume for chicken meat and offal in French Polynesia showed modest growth followed by stabilization. Consumption of frozen chicken thighs, a regulated essential good, supported consistent demand, while strict veterinary certificates and sanitary controls governed imports, maintaining market stability despite minor fluctuations.

After a decline in 2021, the market rebounded in 2022 when authorities lifted import restrictions on refrigerated and frozen poultry meat, enabling increased shipments under strict health conditions. This regulatory change drove a notable rise in market volume. However, by 2023, the market contracted significantly, returning to levels closer to those seen earlier in the period.
