Earlier Report Observations

The market for fresh, chilled, or frozen goose meat and edible offal in Eastern Africa remained relatively stable from 2018 to 2023, with total volume fluctuating between 12 768 t and 12 903 t. After a gradual decline from 2018, the market stabilized in 2022–2023. Domestic production held steady at around 12 778 t per year, while imports fell sharply from 126 t in 2018 to just 2 t in 2023.

Regional trade integration strengthened in 2023 as South Africa sourced goose meat and offal from Namibia, improving supply chain connectivity. Halal certification boosted international trade, catering to growing consumer demand for offal in local cuisines. By 2024, cold‑storage network expansions in South Africa enhanced distribution reliability for chilled and frozen products, supporting market development.
