In our country, the consumption of duck and goose meat mainly falls on the festive period. The Hungarian population consumes approximately 3 kilograms of duck meat and between 70 dkg and 1 kg of goose meat per year. The turnover of duck and goose products increases by leaps and bounds with the arrival of the autumn period, from the second half of October. The peak period is concentrated on St. Martin’s Day and the few days before Christmas.

In view of the seasonality of consumption, Auchan stores offer an expanded product selection of fresh duck and goose products from the weeks before St. Martin’s Day until Christmas. At this time, 40 types of duck products are kept, and this number is close to 20 from geese. The commercial experience of recent years shows that instead of whole duck or goose, more and more people prefer prepared, cut meat and so-called ready-to-cook products. The wide selection also includes a large number of innovative sous-vide, completely ready-to-cook products, which preserve all the flavors and aromas and only require the “finishing” kitchen operations.

Auchan not only offers fresh meat, but also duck and goose products in increased quantities in its year-end range of meat products. The 16 types of products include crackers, fat, pâté and liver products. One of the special features of the range is Auchan premium duck fat, which won first place in the Maradok a pénezem plé blog duck fat comparison test.

Auchan obtains its fresh duck and goose products entirely from domestic supplier partners. The duck and goose farming and processing enterprises operating in Hungary also take national traditions into account when producing high-quality, tasty meat products that, at the same time, fully comply with international standards. Transparent, sustainable and controlled processes are kept in mind in all circumstances. Auchan, in addition to the largest domestic waterfowl processing companies that comply with the strictest quality standards, also cooperates with smaller family farms that meet the same standards.
