No one loves pork as much as Poles
17:51
Poles eat more meat than the average resident of other European Union countries. The difference is 5.2 kg per person per year. On average, Poles consume 73.2 kilograms of meat per year, while the European average is 67.9 kilograms. We are also distinguished by the amount of pork we eat. We consume 13.8 kg more of it per year per capita compared to other EU countries.
Although we are attached to meat, experts from the auditing firm PwC believe that meat consumption per capita in Poland will be slightly declining in the medium term. In 2027, it will reach 72.7 kg of meat per year per person.
“In the short term, an increase in meat consumption in Poland is expected, which will be driven by the growth of affluence, while in the long term, market saturation is expected, which will lead to a slow decline in meat consumption,” we can read in the PwC report.
