US lamb exports trends higher, value decrease
Through October, US lamb exports increased 31% from a year ago to 17,355 tonnes, but the total value was down 5% to $20.5 million. Lamb muscle cut volume was substantially higher at 8,203 tonnes (up 355%), with a more modest increase in export value ($12.4 million, up 7%).
Lamb muscle cut exports to Mexico increased sharply through October to 7,473 tonnes, up more than 1000% year-over-year, with value tripling to $7.5 million. Muscle cut shipments were also larger to Hong Kong, Japan and Bermuda. Though volumes remain small, US lamb’s presence continues to expand in the Japanese and Taiwanese foodservice sectors and US lamb made its retail debut in Japan.
