Earlier Report Observations

The volume of Estonia's pork market declined from around 24 thousand metric tons in 2018 to slightly over 20 thousand metric tons in 2020. After this contraction, consumption recovered to approximately 22.3 thousand metric tons in 2021, stabilized near 21.7-21.8 thousand metric tons through 2022 and 2023, and rose again to 23.4 thousand metric tons in 2024.

In value terms, the market's trajectory diverged notably from its physical volume. Starting at 60.1 million US dollars in 2018, the market's value fell to 52.1 million by 2020. A steady increase began thereafter, reaching 57.9 million in 2022, followed by a sharp acceleration to 73.4 million in 2023 and 79.9 million in 2024, highlighting a period of significant price inflation for pork in the Estonian market.
