Abstracts

In 2023, both the retail unit price and retail volume sales of meat have been experiencing declines in China. The primary reason for the decrease in retail volumes is the gradual return to normalcy in consumers' lives. The cancellation of China’s 'zero Covid' policy at the end of 2022 has resulted in a shift in consumer meal preferences, with some returning to foodservice establishments in 2023. Therefore, demand for meat through foodservice is considerably higher than pre-pandemic levels.
