Pakistan Announces Export Push for Processed Poultry

A government-industry roadmap will target input security, higher productivity, internationally recognised standards, traceability, cold-chain.

Overview

  • Adviser Haroon Akhtar Khan said at the International Poultry Expo that the government will work with the Pakistan Poultry Association to draft a practical export roadmap.
  • The plan names uninterrupted supply of feed inputs, especially soybean, and clearer import decisions with set timelines as priorities to stabilize costs and production.
  • Officials said meeting export rules will require halal certification, stronger disease surveillance, internationally recognised processing standards, farm biosecurity and full product traceability.
  • The adviser urged foreign technology transfer and investment in precision feeding, genetics, early disease detection and digital monitoring and called for training and youth opportunities in related fields.
  • This announcement is a policy-stage commitment rather than an implementation plan, with no detailed timelines or confirmed market access deals and with follow-up and investment needed before exports expand.
