Ukraine: Poultry and Products Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   UP2024-0015
Ukrainian chicken meat production recovered in 2024 and is expected to continue its slow recovery in 2025, with total production still below the pre-full-scale invasion level. Ukraine’s largest producer, MHP SE, reports stable production at full capacity. All producers are suffering from electricity outages, workforce mobilization, and other issues stemming from Russia's full-scale invasion. Chicken meat exports are expected to be strong, but export focus will shift from the European Union (EU) due to new trade restrictions imposed by the European Commission in May 2024. Exports to Middle Eastern markets will rise throughout 2024 and 2025. Consumption will remain well under pre-full-scale invasion levels due to population outflow. Imports of chicken offal from the EU will continue to decline as domestic production takes over the segment. All forecasts are subject to change due to developments related to Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine.
