More pork was exported last year than any since 2000, just before the start of the last outbreak of Foot and Mouth Disease, according to BPEX.
Total exports of pork and pork products hit 256,000 tonnes (product weight), very similar to the level for 2000 with a total value of more than £325 million.
The biggest single market was Greater China (including Hong Kong) which took 57,000 tonnes.
