U.S. exports of fresh or chilled swine carcasses & half-carcasses (HS 020311) totaled $1.4M in December 2025, traded with 1 country.
Last updated: December 2025 dataWhole and half pork carcasses shipped fresh or chilled represent the least-processed form of swine meat entering US commerce and are subject to mandatory USDA FSIS reinspection at the port of entry. A single 10-digit line (0203110000) covers this subheading, reflecting the relatively narrow commercial use of whole carcasses compared to primal cuts. Italy is the primary recorded supplier under this heading, a pattern consistent with specialty heritage-breed and artisanal pork trade rather than commodity volume. Cold-chain integrity from slaughter to US port is a critical compliance and quality consideration given the fresh/chilled (non-frozen) condition.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Italy's presence reflects niche trade in heritage or specialty breed pigs destined for artisanal processing rather than commodity pork supply chains. Whole carcasses in fresh/chilled condition require rapid transit and precise cold-chain management, which limits the practical supplier pool to origins with efficient direct air or refrigerated sea freight connections.
Shipments must maintain continuous refrigeration within FSIS-specified temperature ranges from the approved foreign establishment through arrival at the US port. FSIS inspectors verify temperature logs and product condition at reinspection; product found out of temperature compliance may be refused entry or condemned.
