US Pork Products To Flood Local Market; As Country Reaches Agreement With USDA? | Business News

Thu, 26 Jan 2023 00:20


Ghana's imported pork and pork products market was valued at US$16million in 2021, according to the USDA.

Total imports have increased gradually from 2017, hitting 15,000 metric tons in 2021 as the market is dominated by the EU, with the United States not being a significant player – not even counted among the top-ten importers into the country.

The USDA has however noted that opening the market to US pork and pork products is an opportunity that will be exploited by businesses from that country.

About 70,000 metric tons of pork and pork products have been imported into the country in the last six years – from 2017 to 2022 – according to Trade Data Monitor LLC, with the top-ten countries being Belgium, Poland, Germany, Netherlands, Ireland, Romania, Spain, Ukraine, the UK and France.
