Abstract

Since the beginning of 2000s, imports of frozen pieces of chicken from the European Union or America have considerably increased in several African and Caribbean developing countries, competing with local chicken meat. This evolution has contributed to a complete transformation of urban consumption habits as regards poultry meat. Investigations have been done in 2005 in Yaoundé (Cameroon) and in 2006 at Port-au-Prince (Haiti) applied to 180 urban households in each country, showing that imported frozen pieces of chicken have widely substituted for the local chicken which has already quite disappeared in Port-au-Prince, but is still appreciated by Yaoundé consumers. This article aims to assess the impacts, on such an evolution of i) socio-economic features of consumers and ii) the impact of chicken consumption habits, for what imported versus domestic chicken may be more or less adapted. In order to take into account numerous qualitative variables, econometric regressions are using synthetic continue variables built on multiple correspondence analysis of qualitative variables. Results differ from Port-au-Prince to Yaoundé.
