The USDA analysts say however that in 2016, in terms of value, the Polish poultry meat reached 15%, at 1.54 billion dollars, reflecting a price decline. Furthermore, in the same year, some 30% of Poland's poultry meat production was destined for export.
Major markets for the Polish poultry meat within the EU are United Kingdom, Germany, France, the Netherlands, and the Czech Republic. Hong Kong, China, and Ukraine are the main markets outside of the EU.
