Earlier Report Observations
In 2018, the market for non-rendered pig fat in Israel relied entirely on domestic production, constrained by the ban on imports of non-kosher pork and newly introduced mandatory 'red label' warnings for foods high in saturated fat. A temporary surge followed in 2019, with market volume jumping to 1 067 t as limited imports entered through loopholes in the import restrictions for special purposes.
From 2020, the market entered a sustained decline. The closure of import loopholes and the implementation of stricter warning label thresholds at the end of 2020 reduced the product's appeal. A concurrent consumer shift away from processed meats for health reasons further dampened demand, pulling market volume down to 882 t by 2021.
The downward trend continued through 2022 and 2023, with volume falling to 718 t. This period was marked by the rapid growth of Israel's food-tech sector, including the first regulatory approval for cultivated meat, which offered alternatives to animal fats. Broader dietary trends favoring plant-based and healthier foods solidified the reduction in consumption of traditional pig fat.
