Egg exports grow in the first half of the year
Revenue from exports between January and June reached US$57,759 million, a result 216.3% higher than that recorded in the same period in 2024, with US$18,622 million.
In June alone, egg shipments reached 6,558 tons, a figure 308.3% higher than that recorded in the same month of 2024. Revenue obtained in the month was US$ 15,659 million, a balance 288.8% higher than in June of the previous year.
The United States established itself as the main destination for Brazilian exports in the first half of the year, with 15,202 tons shipped (+1,247%), generating revenue of US$33.1 million (+1,586.2%). Next comes Mexico, with 1,586 tons and US$6.9 million in revenue, and Japan, with 1,570 tons (+152.1%) and US$3.7 million (+143.2%).
Other highlights include Angola, with 686 tons and US$1.1 million; Sierra Leone, with 473 tons (+359.6%) and US$766,000 (+373.5%); and Uruguay, with 369 tons (-14.3%) and US$1.24 million (-18.5%). On the other hand, Chile recorded a 16.6% drop in volumes (2,426 tons) and a slight 2% drop in revenue, with US$6.85 million.
"Egg shipments reached historic levels in the first half of the year, with a significant expansion of Brazil's presence in strategic markets such as the United States, Mexico, and Japan. This scenario reinforces the international market's confidence in the quality, biosafety, and competitiveness of Brazilian products. If current market conditions remain, the expectation is that the second half of the year will consolidate a new cycle of growth in the sector's exports, without significant impacts on the domestic supply of products," advises ABPA president Ricardo Santin.
