Earlier Report Observations
Senegal's pig fat market volume grew from 1 360 t in 2018 to 1 534 t in 2023, driven largely by sustained government support for the swine sector. An annual budget dedicated to pig farming and ongoing programs to improve animal health and feeding practices helped production rise initially. However, persistent sanitary and nutritional challenges for breeders led to a notable contraction in 2021, with market volume falling to 1 202 t. The market recovered strongly the following year, aided by the cumulative effect of earlier public initiatives aimed at enhancing productivity.
Cultural and religious factors, particularly in a majority Muslim country, continued to shape the market by limiting broader consumption. Despite these constraints, demand for pork maintained growth in urban segments like Dakar. By 2023, rising prices for pork and a consumer preference for locally produced meat supported further market expansion, reflecting a resilient domestic sector.
