Earlier Report Observations
The market for raw bovine and equine hides and skins in Israel more than doubled in volume from 2018 to 2023, growing from 6 821 t to 14 640 t. A strong expansion phase occurred between 2018 and 2020, followed by a period of relative stability before another significant surge in 2023.
In 2024, the sector witnessed the entry of the fresh beef brand 'La Marsha' from Argentina and Poland into the Carrefour retail chain, aimed at offering quality meat at competitive prices. This development coincided with a reported 35% rise in beef consumption in Israel over recent years, a trend influenced by kosher preferences, which directly affects the supply of raw hides as a by-product of the meat industry.
