Earlier Report Observations

The pork market in Nepal demonstrated a clear growth trend from 2018 to 2022, with its volume expanding from 28 341 tons to 36 059 tons, an increase of over 27%. This rise was supported by consistent growth in domestic production, which climbed from 28 214 tons to 36 059 tons over the same five years, while imports dwindled to zero.

After reaching a peak in 2022, the market contracted in 2023, with volume falling by 9.8% to 32 533 tons. This decline corresponded with a drop in production, as the market had become entirely reliant on domestic supply following the cessation of imports.
