China's poultry & products import market contracted significantly in 2025, with total imports falling to $2.1 billion, due to increased domestic supply, HPAI-related import restrictions, and ongoing trade tensions. The United States remained China's fourth-largest poultry supplier, dominated by chicken paws. A popular food, chicken paws remain a staple in traditional Cantonese cuisines and ready-to-eat snacks, presenting continued opportunities for U.S. exporters.
