Indian Buffalo Meat Exporters Shift Focus to Southeast Asia Amid Declining Demand from Egypt in 2023

Indian buffalo meat exporters are increasingly targeting Southeast Asian markets as demand from Egypt declines due to Foreign Exchange Market (FOREX) challenges private importers faced in 2023. In these markets, Indian exporters compete vigorously against Australian live cattle and frozen meat imports. The higher prices of Australian meat imports are leading to a decrease, pushing them toward the premium segment. Meanwhile, Indian buffalo meat imports are gaining prominence in retail and manufacturing due to their price advantage.
