    Thailand's Kaitai Research Center reported that the retail prices of major domestic meat products in Thailand tend to remain high .

    50 baht/kg in August .
    In addition, pork prices from January to August 2021 have increased by 3.
    3% year-on-year .
    The Kaitai Research Center expects that meat prices will continue to remain high for the rest of 2021.
    Due to the additional costs of epidemic prevention and animal epidemic prevention and control, the continuous increase in feed costs, the continuous high transportation costs of imported goods, and the trend of Thai baht Depreciation in volatility .
     
    Based on the above factors, the Kaitai Research Center predicts that the average retail price of meat in Thailand in 2021 will increase by 2-3% compared to last year
    .
    The tendency of meat prices to rise along with rising production costs will affect operators differently from company to company
    .
    Large enterprises will be more affected by the "factory sandbox" program than SMEs, because large enterprises are the target group of the pilot program and need to focus on enhancing the confidence of trading partners
    .
    On the other hand, small and medium-sized enterprises have weak bargaining power, low raw material inventory, and still have limitations in finding alternative raw materials.
    Therefore, they may be affected by the sharp increase in production costs along with the increase in feed prices
    .
     
    The epidemic in Thailand has not been alleviated.
    Meat is a price-controlled commodity.
    Operators can only pass on part of the cost burden to consumers.

    0%, lower than the 2020 growth rate of 6.
    3%, the main supporting factors meat prices
    .
    It is expected that the average retail price of meat in 2021 will increase by about 2-3% compared to last year
    .
    However, meat consumption may not increase compared to last year.
    The purchasing power of consumers and the catering industry is still affected by the new crown pneumonia epidemic and cannot resume growth within this year
    .
     
    For the problems faced by enterprises in the future, Kaitai Research Center recommends that in addition to researching and developing other alternative raw materials to reduce the risk of price fluctuations of main raw materials, enterprises should also adjust business processes and implement efficient factory safety protection measures to cope with future epidemic trends.
