Mexico: Poultry and Products Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Mexico’s chicken meat and egg production have been affected by both the pandemic health emergency measures and domestic economic fallout, with lower than expected growth through the first half of 2020. However, the resilience of the poultry industry has allowed for a slight positive trend in 2020, expected to slightly improve in 2021 with a growth rate of up to 3 percent. The United States expanded its market share as Mexico’s main supplier for chicken meat and eggs, re-gaining market share lost by Brazil when Mexico’s third country tariff-rate quota (TRQ) for poultry expired. Through 2020 and 2021, domestic consumption of chicken meat will continue to grow due to increased household demand for a more affordable animal protein source.
