Earlier Report Observations

The chicken meat and offal market in the Solomon Islands has been characterized by stable small-scale village production throughout the period, with local practices such as mumu cooking influencing consumption patterns. Domestic output remained steady at around 285 t annually, making the market heavily reliant on imports to meet demand.

Market volume fluctuations were primarily driven by changes in import levels. The COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 disrupted supply chains and increased prices for imported chicken, contributing to a rise in market size to 4 154 t. This was followed by further growth in 2021, with the market reaching 5 037 t. In 2022, global factors such as the ongoing pandemic effects led to a contraction to 4 423 t, before a strong recovery in 2023 to 5 967 t under continued influence of global supply and demand conditions.

The trend of import dependence continued into 2024, with shipments rising to 6 491 t, influenced by global supply chain dynamics and international price movements.
