MARKET ANALYSIS
Market trends

One notable trend in the industry is that pig farmers no longer focus on rearing pig livestock alone but are finding it pleasurable to compliment the business with either crop cultivation or pig meat (pork) processing and packaging.

Also, even though pig raising had been in existence for long, the industry has in no way become oversaturated. There is still room for innovations and improvements. Technology has helped the industry in no small way as regards the packaging and preservation of the products.

Another trend is that, because of improvements in technology, it has become very easy for pig farmers to experiment with cross-breeding. Various species of pigs are cross-bred to produce new breeds.

Target Market

Our target market encompasses all. Everybody needs pig products in one way or another. Livestock products such as pork, milk, skin which serves as leather for bags, belts, shoes, etc are from time to time consumed by the general populace.
