International shoppers are getting a deal on New Zealand lambEWAN SARGENT/STUFF Lamb, it's not on our plates. Are people overseas paying more or less for New Zealand lamb than we Kiwis are? Some UK supermarkets banned the sale of New Zealand lamb last year, following intense lobbying from their local industry. The wholesale price of UK lamb dropped to £2.36 (NZ$6.39) per kilo, while NZ's lamb had risen to £3.82 (NZ$7.26). In The United States, wholesale supermarket Sam's Club's whole boneless lamb legs were going for US$14 (NZ$19.30) per kilogram.
