Earlier Report Observations

The volume of the pork market in Oceania grew from 747 thousand tonnes in 2018 to 782 thousand tonnes in 2022, despite a temporary contraction to 731 thousand tonnes in 2020. This expansion was supported by rising imports, which increased from 214 thousand tonnes to 231 thousand tonnes over the period, partly driven by stricter food safety standards and cold chain improvements in key export markets like China, which heightened demand for imported meat.

Market value showed stronger volatility, climbing from $2.8 billion in 2018 to a peak of $3.3 billion in 2021, then dropping sharply to $2.8 billion in 2022 amid broader price adjustments before recovering to $3.2 billion in 2023. During this period, industry trends such as a focus on sustainability practices and the launch of new premium meat products emerged, influencing production methods and market offerings.
