Cattle & Hog Wholesaling in the US
IBISWorld, Aug 2011, Pages: 33
Seeing red: Health concerns will hurt red meat demand, but higher prices will boost profit
Cattle & Hog Wholesaling in the US
Pigging out
While constrained by high feed prices, industry revenue will marginally improve over the next five years, as domestic demand rises in conjunction with income levels. Higher prices for red meats will also benefit firms, as they manage to achieve greater profitability. Still, health concerns will hurt downstream demand, as consumers consume less red meat overall.
Establishments in this industry primarily wholesale livestock. Cattle, swine, sheep and goats are included, but horses and mules are excluded. Wholesalers may purchase livestock from feedlots, breeders or other ranchers and then sell to slaughterhouses, other feedlots and breeders, and other livestock buyers.
This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
