Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2020, the market volume of raw sheep and lamb skins in Angola contracted slightly, from 587 t to 568 t. This decline was linked to ongoing disputes between large breeders and the Ministry of Agriculture over the distribution of imported cattle, which disrupted livestock projects. At the same time, the sector's heavy reliance on imported inputs, combined with a sharp depreciation of the kwanza, significantly increased production costs and limited investment.

The market entered a recovery phase from 2021, expanding to 623 t by 2023. This growth was supported by reforms in the supply chain and policies to boost local production, including the 'Planagrão' initiative aimed at long-term import substitution. Furthermore, the maintained ban on imports of various meats protected domestic output from foreign competition, although high production costs driven by currency weakness and infrastructure gaps continued to pressure the sector.
