Damate increased export volumes by 21% over 6 months of 2024
Damate Group sums up the results of exports in the first half of 2024. Over 6 months, the company exported about 12 thousand tons of meat products from turkey, duck and lamb, which is 21% more than in the same period last year. The volume growth is the result of increased shipments to partner countries, the development of new sales channels and the expansion of the assortment
Turkey products became the growth driver of foreign supplies, about 10 thousand tons of natural semi-finished products, deep-processed products and ready-to-eat products were sent to the countries of the African continent, the Persian Gulf, Asia and the neighboring countries.
More than half of the total turkey exports were sent to China, one of the key markets for Damate. In six months, the company has significantly increased shipments to China, becoming the leading supplier of turkey to this country. This was due to the start of deliveries from Rostov region and the growing demand for the company's products. Supplies to the markets of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates were also increased.
"Damate keeps increasing its exports and strengthening its export positions from year to year. We are not only opening new directions, but also expanding our customer base in those countries with which we have been cooperating for a long time through the development of new sales channels, offering unique assortment positions," said Daria Laschenko, Deputy General Director for Marketing and Sales at Damate.
Duck supplies abroad have increased significantly. The main growth factor is the start of exports to the People's Republic of China. The Middle East, the CIS and the neighboring countries are still attractive markets. The range of products supplied includes by-products and natural semi-finished products.
Damate has been developing lamb exports since 2023. Over 6 months, the company expanded the range of products supplied, which allowed the company to increase supplies to the markets of the Middle East.
