Chinese Eggs Arrive in Pakistani Markets
Pakistan has received its first shipment of Chinese broiler eggs, marking a significant milestone in the country’s effort to meet the growing demand for poultry products.
The initial shipment, comprising 172,800 “Guangming No 2” White Feathered Broiler eggs, was flown in from Guangzhou Baiyun Airport. These eggs, bred by Foshan Gaoming District Xinguang Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Co Ltd and the Beijing Institute of Animal Science of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, represent China’s debut export of this poultry breed to Pakistan.
This move comes in response to Pakistan’s increasing poultry consumption driven by population growth and evolving dietary preferences. The local poultry industry has faced challenges in keeping up with demand, including issues like feed shortages and disease outbreaks that have affected production.
The import of these eggs is a key development in agricultural trade between China and Pakistan, aiming to bolster Pakistan’s poultry supply and address the pressures on the local industry.
