Namibia’s poultry sector remains heavily reliant on imports to meet domestic demand.
In 2025, poultry meat imports totalled approximately 20,380 tons, representing a substantial supply of poultry products to the domestic market, according to the Namibia Agricultural Union (NAU) Quarterly Report for the 4th quarter of 2025.
NAU researcher Leigh-Ann Nehoya explained that the poultry imports significantly exceed those of other livestock products, reflecting the strong and growing demand for poultry as an affordable and widely consumed protein source in Namibia.
