China and Hong Kong combined was the biggest single pork export market for the UK last year. Both countries bought a total of 57,000 tons of pork of which about 27% was offal. While the country’s total offal exports fell by 7,411 tons to 41,123 tons, China and Hong Kong recorded increases in imports. The country is looking to export more meat to China particularly cuts that are not commonly sold in British supermarkets. Last year a trade visit to China saw British meat producers putting chicken feet on the plate together with other types of British meat. This year Britain hopes to export pigs’ feet and stomach, among other types of offal products. The country hopes that the value of pork exports to China, already worth USD 40 million, will increase 10-fold in the next five years, reported cctv.com.

China hotpot dish spikes demand for NZ lamb

New Zealand’s sheep meat trade to China increased fivefold from 2010 to USD 455 million last year, thanks to growing demand for secondary cuts such as caps and flaps - heavily fat-marbled and taken from around the belly of the lamb - that were previously much cheaper or even destined for the pet food market. When the cuts arrive in China, they are rolled; semi-frozen and sliced paper-thin, and sold to hot pot restaurants, said a report from Business Day.

The popularity of the traditional Asian shared dish, offering cost-conscious diners healthy, home-grown fare - slivers of meat and vegetables served in a broth - is giving McDonald’s Corp , Yum Brands Inc and others a run for their money in China’s USD 143 billion fast food market. New Zealand supplies around 60% of the global sheep meat market but it is struggling to keep up with Chinese demand. Australia, which supplies 35%, is likely to meet the shortfall.
