US pork exports in August reached 225,822 tonnes, a 4% increase from the previous year, with a 20% increase in value to $633.9 million. This growth was driven by record shipments to Mexico and other markets, despite a slowdown in beef cut exports to China. From January to August, pork exports were up 1.5% from the previous year, reaching over 2mt, and their value increased by 10% to $5.62bn. Pork offal exports to China and Hong Kong also saw a 23% increase to 231,283 tonnes, valued at $558m.
