Published | 01 January 2022

China meat market is growing at a high CAGR because of the increasing health-consciousness among consumers. Additionally, growing import and export activities for meat in the country to fulfill the growing demand for meat among Chinese consumers is favoring market growth….

A recent study conducted by the strategic consulting and market research firm, BlueWeave Consulting, revealed that the China meat market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% during the forecast period (2021-2027). China meat market is growing at a high rate because of the increasing disposable income of families due to economic growth. Additionally, the availability of a wide range of fresh meat in China is also strengthening the market. Presently, Chinese consumers have greater access to meat than ever before and a far wider selection of meats to choose from, which is driving the demand for meat in China. According to estimates, Chinese consumers consume 30% of the world's meat. Pork is the most popular meat type consumed in China. The country invests handsomely in expanding its pork production to meet the growing domestic demand. However, the demand for other meat varieties, such as veal meat, is also growing among Chinese consumers.

Additionally, the country is focusing on boosting the import and export activities to satisfy the market demand for meat, which is anticipated to boost the market's growth. However, the increasing popularity and penetration of vegan meat are anticipated to act as a major restriction for market growth.

Flourishing Food Tourism in China Projected to Drive the China Meat Market

The food tourism sector in China is flourishing by leaps and bounds. Chinese cuisine is a major attraction for tourists, as it is considered an essential part of experiencing China’s local culture. The demand for meat is, therefore, expected to increase with the increase in international tourists in China. Consumption of meat is primarily fueled by on-trade channels such as hotels, restaurants, and street food vendors, which are boosting the growth of China's meat market.

Increasing Meat Import Activities is Anticipated to Boost the Market Growth

In terms of producing, consuming, and importing meat, China now leads the world. In response to the rising demand for meat in the country, China is significantly investing in meat import and export activities to fuel domestic meat consumption. The United States, France, Denmark, Spain, Canada, Germany are among the major pork importers of China. Additionally, China is also welcoming other countries to boost meat imports. For instance, China has recently authorized a Pakistan-based firm to export meat into the country. Such initiatives are anticipated to boost the growth of the China meat market.
