In 2023, Russia saw a rise in meat and sausage product sales by 3.8% and 4.4% respectively. The country's meat production is projected to grow by 2-3% in 2024, hitting 11.6-12 million tons. Meat consumption has been on a steady rise for over two decades, with record levels being set annually for the past five years. By 2024, meat consumption per capita is expected to reach at least 83 kg, marking an 84% increase from 1999/2000 levels. This growth is attributed to factors such as increased income, domestic food production development, more sales points, and price stabilization. Pork and broiler are the most popular meats, with pork potentially becoming the top choice in 2024.
