COFCO Joycome Posts Lower Hog Prices but Steady Branded Pork Mix in March 2026 Update

COFCO Joycome Foods Limited ( (HK:1610) ) just unveiled an announcement.

COFCO Joycome Foods Limited reported unaudited key operating data for March 2026, showing commercial hog sales volume of 550,000 heads for the month and 1.52 million heads cumulatively for the year. The average price for finishing hogs declined to RMB 9.57 per kilogram, while fresh pork sales volume reached 29,300 tons with branded fresh pork accounting for about 33.82% of total fresh pork revenue.

The update indicates pressure on hog prices compared with earlier in the year, which may weigh on profitability in its upstream farming operations. However, the steady share of branded fresh pork in the revenue mix underscores the company’s continued emphasis on higher-value branded products, a key strategy for stabilizing margins and strengthening its competitive position in China’s pork market.
