Beef Liver Market Outlook:
Beef Liver Market size was valued at USD 1.9 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 3.2 billion by the end of 2035, rising at a CAGR of 5.4% during the forecast period, i.e., 2026-2035. In 2026, the industry size of beef liver is assessed at USD 2 billion.
The beef liver market is defined by the demand in domestic production and import and export dynamics. According to the American Farm Bureau Federation report of 2025, the U.S. production of beef was 2.16 billion pounds in 2023. The domestic processing factories are located in the Midwest and Texas, where assembly lines combine slaughter, liver removal, and packaging for wholesale sale. These plants comply with USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) regulations for product quality and traceability. The beef liver is the primary organ that is mainly diverted to commercial customers, such as pharmaceutical companies for producing supplements and large food service operators.
On the trade side, the international beef liver trade totalled USD 290 million in 2023, according to the report of the OEC. The U.S., Argentina and Australia are the top exporters of frozen beef liver. The Agricultural Research Service of the USDA studies ways to improve the safety and shelf life of meat foods, such as organ meats, to minimise spoilage and increase marketability. At the same time, the National Institutes of Health continues to fund foundational research on the nutrient bioavailability of compounds like heme iron and vitamin A, which are abundant in the liver.
