UK pork exports report another strong performance
China received 4,900 tonnes of pork in November last year, an increase in shipments of 81% year-on-year. Increases were also reported to Germany and Ireland, while shipments to Hong Kong and Denmark declined.

Exports of pig meat overall (including offal) for the month also rose (+3% or 1,000 tonnes), to 31,800 tonnes. "There was some switching in products though compared to year earlier levels. Shipments of bacon and processed pork both recorded increases, though offal recorded a decline," Oborne said.
