Spanish Pork Exports to China: How FACCSA Supports Reliable Supply from Málaga

Introduction: China’s Strategic Demand for Spanish Pork

China is the world’s largest consumer and importer of pork, with sustained demand for frozen pork, pork offal, and bone-in cuts used in both traditional cuisine and industrial food processing. Over the past decade, Spanish pork has become one of the most trusted sources for Chinese buyers due to its competitive pricing, strong biosecurity controls, and strict European Union veterinary supervision.

Within this framework, faccsa operates as an export-oriented Spanish meat trading company, coordinating supply between EU-approved producers and international buyers. Located in southern Spain, faccsa Malaga plays a key role in connecting Chinese importers with compliant Spanish pork products that meet destination-country requirements.

This article explains:

• Why Spanish pork is highly demanded in China

• Which pork parts are most purchased by Chinese clients

• How the faccsa catálogo is structured around Chinese demand

• The export role of faccsa-prolongo within the Spanish pork supply chain

Why Spanish Pork Is Preferred by Chinese Importers

Chinese buyers sourcing pork from Spain benefit from several structural advantages:

• Spain is one of the largest pork producers in the EU

• EU veterinary legislation ensures strict hygiene and traceability

• Spanish slaughterhouses are approved for export to China

• Strong cold-chain logistics and port infrastructure

• Competitive pricing for pork by-products

Unlike many origins, Spanish pork exports are supported by centralized veterinary controls, which significantly reduce customs risk for Chinese importers.
