Earlier Report Observations

The market volume for pig offal in Gabon showed significant volatility between 2018 and 2023, largely driven by fluctuating import levels while domestic production remained stable at around 320 t per year. Consumption peaked at 2 236 t in 2022 after a recovery from a dip to 1 637 t in 2020, but then fell sharply to 977 t in 2023.

The market's structure has been shaped by a high dependence on imports, reinforced by the creation of the Gabonese Food Safety Agency (AGASA) in 2018 to regulate food products. Government strategies under the Emerging Gabon Strategic Plan (PSGE) aimed to develop the agricultural sector, though no major local processing facilities for pig offal emerged during the period.

In 2024, authorities introduced temporary measures such as suspending duties and taxes on certain price-capped goods to address high living costs, which could ease import flows. A separate initiative to bring 1 000 head of cattle for local production indicated a focus on boosting domestic livestock, albeit not directly targeting pork.
