Earlier Report Observations

The market for non-rendered pig fat free of lean meat in Sierra Leone showed consistent growth from 2018 to 2023. Starting at 71 610 kg, the market volume increased each year, reaching 94 900 kg in 2023—a total rise of about 33% over the period.

Growth was particularly strong in the later years, with volume jumping by roughly 8% in 2023 after a 7% increase in 2022. The expansion was driven entirely by domestic production, as imports ceased after a minimal amount in 2018 and exports remained absent.

This sustained upward trend reflects stable production activity in the country's pork fat sector, with the market's size closely tracking local output throughout the six-year span.
