Earlier Report Observations

The goat meat market in Seychelles experienced significant volatility between 2018 and 2023. After reaching 105 thousand kg in 2018, total market volume contracted sharply by 39% to 64 thousand kg the following year. A gradual recovery ensued, with the market growing to 78 thousand kg by 2023, though this remained below the initial peak.

This trajectory was primarily shaped by import flows, which constitute the bulk of supply. Imports plummeted from 83 thousand kg in 2018 to 42 thousand kg in 2019, driving the overall market downturn. Subsequent years saw import volumes fluctuate, rising to 56 thousand kg by 2023 and pulling the total market size upward. Domestic production remained stable throughout the period, increasing modestly from 21.6 thousand kg to 22.1 thousand kg.
