UK pork exports reached record levels

UK pork exports soared to record levels in May, thanks largely to increased volumes heading to China.

According to NPA, fresh and frozen pork shipments were up 31% on a year earlier, at 21,200 tonnes during the month, the highest figure for May based on records going back to 1997.

Average export prices were also a little higher, so export value was up by just over a third, at £31.5 million. The growth was driven by shipments to China, which more than doubled compared to a year earlier, at 7,200 tonnes, as China buys up more pork globally to fill the gap created by its African swine fever outbreak.
