Pork consumption increased as a result of VAT cuts
Pig meat consumption increased by about 2.2 kg per capita in Hungary per person according to the data of the Central Statistical Office (KSH). The increase in consumption is mainly due to the VAT cuts.
Fazekas Sándor said: as a result of a 10 percent increase since 2016, pork consumption is an average of 23 to 25 kilograms. This growth can also be linked to the increasing income of the population and the increase in minimum wages. (MTI)
