Dominican Republic: Food Processing Ingredients

The Dominican Republic’s food processing industry was valued at $8.8 billion during Calendar Year (CY) 2019 in activities categorized as “food industry,” with an additional $2.8 billion for processed beverages and other products during the same period. Meat processing, wheat milling, bakery products, and dairy processing continue to lead the local food processing industry. The United States continues to be a strong supplier of meats, edible oils, fats, dairy products, wheat, and other key ingredients. There is potential for increased exports of those and other U.S. ingredients, especially since CAFTA-DR continues to steer towards full implementation by 2025.
