According to data from the Tanzania Meat Board, weekly meat shipments dropped from approximately 387 tonnes during the week of February 7â14, 2026, to about 147 tonnes between March 7â14, representing a 62 percent decline in just one month. Exporters attribute this decrease to reduced cargo capacity and canceled flights, which have severely restricted access to major traditional markets.
