Brazil: Chicken meat exports grew 3.9 percent in August

Surveys by the Brazilian Animal Protein Association (ABPA) show that Brazilian chicken meat exports (including all products, both fresh and processed) totaled 394.6 thousand tons in August, a volume 3.9% higher than the total recorded in the same period last year, with 379.8 thousand tons.

Revenue recorded in the period reached US$699.4 million, 11.9% lower than the same period last year, with US$793.6 million.

In the year (January to August), chicken meat exports totaled 3,394 million tons, a balance 1.1% lower compared to the same period last year, with 3,432 million tons.

Accumulated revenue in the first eight months of the year reached US$6,308 billion, a balance 0.2% lower than that recorded in 2024, with US$6,319 billion.

"August's performance maintained the stability of shipments seen since Brazil regained its Avian Influenza-Free status, which should change positively with the recent resumption of imports by Chile and the official reopening of the European Union," advises ABPA president Ricardo Santin.

With a strong recovery in shipments, Mexico – which recently received an ABPA action aimed at preserving trade flow – led the ranking of the main destinations for chicken meat for the first time, with 37.5 thousand tons shipped in August, 873.3% higher than last year. Next are the United Arab Emirates, with 32.5 thousand tons (-16.9%), Japan, with 30.3 thousand tons (-22.2%), Saudi Arabia, with 27 thousand tons (+0.6%), South Africa, with 25.7 thousand tons (-8.4%), the Philippines, with 19.7 thousand tons (+27.2%), South Korea, with 15.3 thousand tons (+65.7%), Iraq, with 12.7 thousand tons (+15.0%), the United Kingdom, with 11.3 thousand tons (+130.2%), and Singapore, with 10.9 thousand tons (+14%).

Among the main exporting states, Paraná led the month of August with 158.7 thousand tons exported (-1.6%), followed by Santa Catarina, with 89.7 thousand tons (+6.5%), Rio Grande do Sul, with 44.1 thousand tons (16.6%), São Paulo, with 24.5 thousand tons (+3%) and Goiás, with 21.5 thousand tons (+20.8%).
