China's pork imports reached $2.2 billion

Last year, China bought pork totalling $2.2 billion and several European countries are holding a strong position in the market. Germany and Spain are taking the largest market share in Chiana, each controlling more than 17% in this market. The Netherlands is third in this top, followed by Brazil and Canada.

The US gained only 5,75% market share, pork exports to China in 2018 accounting for $68.9 million. There have been 11 European countries that delivered pork in the Chinese market last year but the situation is now changed, Belgium exports being banned due to ASF outbreak reported in autumn.
The list includes also states such as Chile and Mexico, with an influence of 2.60% and 0.12% in the Chinese pork market. According to the latest analysis, China will continue to import more pork this year due to the ASF crisis that hit the country's pig industry since August 2018.
