Earlier Report Observations
The market for pig offal in Rwanda experienced notable fluctuations from 2018 to 2023. After reaching 386.7 t in 2019, market volume declined over the next three years, hitting a low of 206.1 t in 2022, before rebounding sharply to 328.6 t in 2023.
The decline from 2020 to 2022 was driven primarily by falling domestic production, which dropped from 410.3 t in 2018 to 206.1 t in 2022. Imports remained negligible throughout the period, and exports varied but did not offset the production slump. In 2022, regional UEMOA tariffs on edible pig offal, ranging from 20% to 35%, were in effect, potentially affecting market access for Rwanda as part of the UEMOA zone.
The market recovery in 2023 saw production rise to 328.3 t, accompanied by a small import of 0.3 t, leading to a total market size of 328.6 t. This marked a significant turnaround from the previous year's low.
