Earlier Report Observations

Jamaica's market for non-rendered pig fat free of lean meat contracted between 2018 and 2020, falling from 799 tonnes to 726 tonnes. This decline was largely attributable to increasing pig feed prices, which raised production costs for the country's numerous small-scale farms, and the ongoing threat of African Swine Fever, which added operational risks and limited output growth.

A reversal began in 2021, with market volume rising to 785 tonnes that year and reaching 1 003 tonnes by 2023. The expansion aligns with prolonged marketing initiatives like the #knowyourpork campaign, active since 2015, which sought to enhance consumer acceptance of pork products. Labelling rules enforced by the Bureau of Standards Jamaica, specifying requirements for saturated and trans fats, also shaped the market environment during this period.

Looking toward 2024, global shifts toward healthier, leaner meats and competition from poultry emerged as influential trends, though full-year market volume figures for 2024 are not covered in the available data.
