Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2019, the Bolivian pig fat market expanded from 5 550 t to 5 996 t, driven by increased domestic production and a rise in imports. This growth coincided with the signing of a sanitary measures agreement between Bolivia and other countries, which facilitated market access for agricultural products including pig fat, simplifying import regulations and supporting supply.

After a contraction to 5 770 t in 2020, the market recovered steadily, reaching 6 569 t by 2023. Production volumes showed resilience, climbing from 5 770 t in 2020 to 6 413 t in 2023, while imports fluctuated but remained a supplementary source.

In 2024, new specific requirements for importing pig fat were established, mandating freezing at -18°C, proper packaging, and freedom from defects, alongside updated sanitary control procedures for export to Bolivia, shaping the regulatory framework for future market entries.
