Brazil is poised to reaffirm its global leadership in chicken meat exports in 2025. According to projections by the Brazilian Animal Protein Association (ABPA) and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the country is expected to ship more than 5.4 million tons by the end of the year — representing a potential increase of up to 5% compared to 2024.
The spotlight is on the second half of the year, historically the period with the highest international demand. Forecasts indicate that from June to December, Brazil may export between 2.8 and 3.15 million tons, with monthly averages consistently exceeding 400,000 tons.
🌍 Key Drivers of Growth
Several factors are contributing to Brazil’s strong performance in chicken meat exports:
-
Global avian influenza outbreaks: Ongoing outbreaks in competitor countries such as the U.S. and parts of Asia have constrained global supply, increasing reliance on Brazilian poultry — which remains free from avian influenza.
-
High sanitary and traceability standards: Brazilian chicken meat, especially from leading exporters like Neoking Foods, is internationally recognized for its strict quality controls and food safety protocols.
-
Market diversification: In addition to traditional importers like China, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE, Brazil continues to expand into strategic markets across Africa, Southeast Asia, and Eastern Europe.
📈 First-Half Performance Fuels Optimism
In January and February alone, Brazil shipped over 900,000 tons, reflecting a year-over-year growth of approximately 10%. If this momentum continues, the country could surpass its own export records once again.
🚢 Neoking Foods: Leading the Way in Global Poultry Exports
Operating in over 30 countries, Neoking Foods is one of the companies driving the sector’s international growth.

Beyond product excellence, Neoking Foods also invests in its global presence through participation in major international trade shows, including Anuga, GulFood, SIAL, and AfricasFood Show, where it forges strategic partnerships and strengthens the global reputation of Brazilian agribusiness.
🔎 2025 Outlook
Should the current pace continue, total exports could exceed initial expectations and set a new historical record. This not only reinforces Brazil’s dominance in the global protein trade, but also highlights the essential role of exporters — such as Neoking Foods — in delivering sustainable, safe food solutions to international markets.
