Earlier Report Observations

The South Korean fresh or chilled goose meat market reached 16 970 kg in 2019, a growth driven by the expansion of cold chain infrastructure and the rise of online food delivery platforms. These developments enhanced the availability and convenience of fresh meat products, supporting overall demand.

The following year saw a contraction to 14 220 kg, coinciding with the COVID-19 pandemic's disruption to supply chains and the implementation of a new shelf-life labeling system. These factors introduced operational challenges and adjusted inventory management practices across the fresh meat industry.

From 2021 to 2023, the market continued to decline, falling to 10 940 kg, as high production costs in the meat sector and a shift in consumer preferences toward price and quality over freshness and origin reduced the appeal of goose meat. This trend reflected broader difficulties in meat distribution and changing purchasing patterns.
