Report description

The U.S. retail poultry market gained 31% during 2005-10, topping an estimated $41 billion in 2010. It enjoys a healthy halo compared to red meat, thanks to its lower fat content. Additionally, its low cost has made it more attractive to cost-cutting consumers in the past five years. Lastly, it’s flexibility as a food ingredient lends itself to many applications in meals and snacks.

In the past year, however, competition from value-based restaurant meals began cutting in on poultry sales and threaten to hamper market growth unless manufacturers can keep poultry consumers engaged with innovative recipes and convenient, ready-to-eat (RTE) preparations.
