Polish poultry export outside EU increases by 41%
14:53
Around 80 percent of Polish poultry is exported to European countries. However this market has become saturated. Therefore poultry producers have had to look further afield and export more outside the EU.
They have already been very successful. In the first half of 2015 the export of poultry to outside Europe increased by 41 percent compared to the previous year. For comparison in 2014 the increase was 10 percent. This result is especially due to African markets. Hong Kong and China are also willing importers.
Export outside the EU is enormously important for Poland, as it could return the country to the position as the EU's leading poultry exporter in 2015.
