Earlier Report Observations

The market for lard and poultry fats in Angola expanded from 4 622 t in 2018 to 6 405 t in 2023, with production rising from 4 568 t to 6 359 t over the same period. Growth was interrupted in 2020 when market volume fell to 4 531 t, but it rebounded strongly to 5 847 t in 2021, followed by moderate increases to 6 101 t in 2022 and 6 405 t in 2023.

Underlying this trajectory were early constraints in national meat processing capacity, which limited the competitiveness of local production. By 2023, high production costs for poultry—more than triple those in Brazil—were driving increased meat imports, reflecting persistent gaps in domestic supply. The structure of Angola's meat production, dominated by goat and beef with poultry at 15.6% as of 2022, provided context for the fats market.

In 2024, policy shifts emerged to bolster local output: strategic talks between poultry producers and the government aimed at improving efficiency, and proposals were tabled to progressively ban imports of certain animal products from 2025. Concurrently, Grupo Carrinho's decision to halt frozen pork imports underscored a push toward national self-sufficiency.
