Earlier Report Observations

The Nigerian market for pig fat free of lean meat and poultry fat expanded consistently from 2018 to 2023, with volume rising from 16 983 t to 20 764 t. This growth, averaging about 4% per year, was primarily fueled by increases in domestic production, as imports and exports played a negligible role.

Annual growth rates gradually eased from over 5% in 2020 to under 3% by 2023. The latter year saw a more moderate expansion of 2.9%, reflecting a somewhat flattened trend in both production and consumption compared to earlier periods.

By 2024, consumer preferences in Nigeria's meat market were increasingly shaped by health consciousness and a demand for healthier, sustainable, and locally sourced products. These shifts, along with broader economic drivers like GDP per capita, began influencing the demand environment for pig fat.
