Brazil Frozen Lamb Market Growth Factors
Changing Consumer Preferences
In recent years Brazil has seen a consumer shift towards new protein sources in its diet, such as lamb, as the Brazilian population becomes increasingly health conscious and demands better quality food products. The report states that 39.4% of women are interested in lamb, particularly food lovers. High-income men’s support, at 73.3%, is even more consistent, driving domestic market growth and retailers’ responses.
Robust Export Demand
Due to its trade position, Brazil also exports frozen whole lamb carcasses to other markets, such as the Middle East, Europe and Asia. In 2023, 4,296 Kg of frozen lamb carcasses were exported to destinations for $57.44K. Major international duck markets are the Marshall Islands (928 kg worth $10.89K) and Thailand (335 kg worth $9.05K). The impetus for this increase in export is the competitive price, food quality, halal compliance, and government support given to duck farmers.
Advancements in Supply Chain Logistics
Logistics and cold chain infrastructure in Brazil has also improved, with GCCA members covering over half of the country’s cold storage capacity, and new technologies such as real-time tracking improving logistics and helping to reduce logistics costs. These improvements have ensured that food products are as fresh as they are safe, helped increase producers’ opportunities to meet domestic and international demand.
