The increasing inflation rates and foodservice consumption are fueling sales
- From 2019 to 2022, the market's overall growth rate was around 4.7% in value, and the off-trade channel recorded around 2.9% growth in value from 2021 to 2022. The off-trade channel sales were 5.9% higher than the on-trade channel in 2022. The demand for chicken parts has increased over the past several years due to increased tourism and the student population, which mainly looks for affordable food options. Processed poultry meat sales are highest as these people live on a budget and have hectic lifestyles, which is boosting the sales.
- However, in 2022, the on-trade channel's sales observed a significant growth of 12.89% from 2020 to 2022 due to supply chain disruptions. With a 3.4% rise in inflation, a 2% rise in the price index, and a rise in VAT (value-added tax) from 5% to 15% compared to the previous year, poultry prices increased and availability decreased. Restaurants are opening at a slow pace, and people are more concerned about health, so they prefer to cook at home.
- In Saudi Arabia, the online channel for poultry meat is projected to be the fastest-growing off-trade distribution channel, registering a CAGR value of 8.94% during the forecast period. The increasing adoption of technology by multiple stakeholders like customers, supermarkets, convenience channels, and B2C has resulted in consumers shifting toward online channels. With the increased penetration, more than 53% of consumers purchase frozen poultry at least once a month. During festival seasons like Ramadan, 76% of consumers are likely to buy frozen poultry more frequently. The increase in production and cheaper frozen poultry meat costs compared to other channels are driving the market's sales. The internet penetration rate for Saudi Arabia reached over 97.9% in 2022.
