Egypt's poultry market experienced relative stability on Tuesday, September 29, 2026, with prices in the Egyptian Poultry Exchange and farms showing minimal changes. The retail and commercial markets, however, witnessed slight variations in prices due to factors such as geographical location, profit margins of traders, and transportation costs. According to the General Poultry Division of the Egyptian Federation of Chambers of Commerce, the current prices are expected to persist.

The price of white poultry, in particular, has remained stable, with sales to consumers at less than 85 pounds. This stability is expected to continue into October due to an abundance of supply and stable feed prices. The General Poultry Division of the Egyptian Federation of Chambers of Commerce monitors and reports on market trends to ensure a stable and sufficient supply of poultry to meet consumer demand.

The prices of various types of poultry in the Egyptian Poultry Exchange on Tuesday, September 29, 2026, are as follows: white chicken ranged from 71-72 pounds on the farm and 80-83 pounds for consumers.
