Taiwan: U.S. Poultry Exports Increase Due to High Pork Prices

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

U.S. poultry exports to Taiwan increased significantly during the first half of 2014 due to exceptionally high pork prices. The Agricultural Trade Office (ATO) in Taiwan estimates that U.S. poultry exports to Taiwan could see a record year in 2014 as more Taiwan consumers replace pork with poultry. Chicken leg quarters and drumsticks remain the most popular items in Taiwan, but requests for other chicken products (e.g., chicken breasts) have been increasing. From January to July (2014), U.S. poultry exports increased 44.8% in volume, or 87,415 metric tons (MT), compared to that same time period in 2013. In CY 2013, the United States exported 94,306 MT of poultry products to Taiwan.
