Romania has delivered over 4,000 sheep to Algeria using cargo planes, a first for the former, according to an announcement<\/a> made on Sunday, May 24, by Romania\u2019s National Sanitary Veterinary and Food Safety Authority (ANSVSA).<\/p>\n

“The first cargo air transport with Romanian sheep arrived safely from Romania to Algeria in only two and a half hours. Another three transports are scheduled in the coming period,\u201d ANSVSA said in its press release.<\/p>\n

According to the institution\u2019s president, Alexandru Bociu, the use of cargo flights to import sheep from Romania places the quality of Romanian meat in a super-premium segment.<\/p>\n

“The sheep arrive at their destination in only two and a half hours, compared to maritime transport, which can last up to 8 days. In other words, we have a clear confirmation of the trust we have gained in a new market that we opened last year. Quality and sanitary-veterinary safety define this collaboration,” said the official.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to the same source, Algeria decided that the entire requirement for the year 2026, including for the Eid al-Adha holiday, will be supplied exclusively from Romania due to the excellent quality of the meat.<\/p>\n

Romania\u2019s first shipment of sheep to Algeria took place last year, after a rigorous process of confirming sanitary-veterinary procedures. In the last 30 days, over 600,000 sheep were exported to Algeria, all transported under rigorous safety conditions, aboard several specially authorized ships.<\/p>\n

Aside from the Easter period, Romanians do not consume much sheep meat, with an average consumption of just 2.3 kg\/inhabitant\/year. As such, the country has a constant overproduction of sheep meat that goes to other markets more familiar with such products.<\/p>\n

Moreover, according to ANSVSA, Romania exports live animals because it has a reduced slaughtering capacity compared to the demand in external markets.<\/p>\n
