Earlier Report Observations

The pork market in Niger displayed notable stability from 2018 to 2023, with annual volume oscillating within a narrow band of 1 492 to 1 510 t. Domestic production held steady at approximately 1 495 t each year, while minor import swings accounted for most variations. Early in the period, the introduction of new taxes on imported essential goods in 2018 and persistent efforts to combat clandestine slaughter in 2019 reflected a regulatory push to formalize the meat sector, coinciding with a year of zero pork imports.

Market volume peaked at 1 510 t in 2022, a year marked by a government ban on live cattle exports aimed at preserving the national herd. This measure likely bolstered domestic meat availability, supporting overall market size. Concurrently, strengthened controls against parallel meat channels and the implementation of new public procurement rules further shaped the commercial environment. The preceding year, 2021, saw continued governmental promotion of local agropastoral products, which aligned with a recovery in pork imports and a rise in market volume.

By 2023, the market volume eased slightly to 1 508 t, effectively stabilizing at a high level. Regulatory clarifications concerning the marketing of agricultural and food products took effect during this year. Throughout the entire period, official emphasis on sanitary controls, consumer awareness campaigns regarding informal meat circuits, and policies favoring local valorization contributed to a consistent and controlled market framework.
