Live pig supply remains stable

In response to press enquires, a spokesman for the Food and Health Bureau said today (January 8) that the live pig supply in Hong Kong remained stable, with an average supply of 4 000 heads per day. The total live pig supply in Hong Kong today is about 4 400 heads.

We understand that the imported live pig supply would remain stable in the next few days.

In addition to live pigs, chilled pork supply is also adequate, and can be further increased to meet market demand.

The authority would continue to keep in view the overall situation of pork supply, the spokesman added.
