Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2023, the market for raw bovine and equine hides and skins in Bahrain showed considerable volatility, with its volume reaching a peak of 165.9 thousand tons in 2021. This followed an initial rise in domestic production, which increased from 153.5 thousand tons in 2018 to 170.4 thousand tons in 2019.

The market volume did not fully mirror the production surge in 2019 due to substantial exports of over 14 thousand tons that year, a pattern repeated in 2020. After a contraction in 2020, both production and market volume recovered strongly in 2021 before entering a phase of gradual moderation through 2023, ending at 156.3 thousand tons.

Throughout the period, imports remained negligible, confirming that local production was the primary source of supply. The export activity in 2019 and 2020 represented a significant temporary diversion of material from the domestic market.
