With the significant increase, Brazil is expected to reach the seventh position in the global ranking. China leads with an average of 385 units per inhabitant per year.

Next are Mexico, with 363, and Indonesia, with 340. Japan occupies the fourth position, followed by Argentina and Paraguay. Brazil ranks ahead of Russia, Malaysia, and Ukraine.

Projection for 2025 according to ABPA, regarding units per inhabitant:

China – 385 units per inhabitant
Mexico – 363 units
Indonesia – 340 units
Japan – 337 units
Argentina – 332 units
Paraguay – 298 units
Brazil – 288 units
Russia – 288 units
Malaysia – 281 units

Progress Compared to Recent Years

Brazilian consumption has not always been so significant. Between 2014 and 2017, the per capita average did not exceed 190 units per year.

The growth gained momentum starting in 2018, when the number surpassed 200 units and continued to rise steadily to reach the current level.

Domestic Production Keeps Up with Demand

In addition to the rise in consumption, egg production is also noteworthy.

In 2025, the expectation is for 62 billion units, which corresponds to an impressive average of 2,000 eggs produced per second.

The anticipated growth for this year is 7.5%, and the trend is expected to continue into 2026, when production should reach 65 billion, an increase of 4.8%.
