Fresh and frozen pork is primarily destined for the German and Polish markets. They represent 36% and 26% of the Belgian export value in pork respectively. Far behind that, in third place, is the United Kingdom which represents 5% of the export value. Belgian companies also export pork meat and pork products to South Korea, China, and Australia as the top three destinations outside of Europe.
