Today Chicken rate in Gujranwala
Gujranwala proudly calls itself Pakistan’s food capital, and chicken sits at the centre of that claim — from the city’s legendary chicken karahi and tikkas to desi hareesa, a winter favourite. The Alam Chowk murga mandi is famous across Punjab for Aseel and desi birds, while dozens of poultry farms around the city — plus major hatcheries near Ghakhar — keep broiler supply deep.
Railway Road and Satellite Town markets are where most households buy, and early-morning shopping there gets the freshest stock. With such strong local production, Gujranwala’s rates are often among the most competitive in Punjab — though wedding season still sends them climbing like everywhere else.

How Gujranwala’s chicken market works
Gujranwala is one of the few cities where local production genuinely cushions prices: the surrounding farm and hatchery belt means supply shocks hit softer here than in cities dependent on long-distance arrivals. Retail still follows the familiar pattern — notified rates from the district administration, open-market reality a step above — but competition among the city’s many poultry shops keeps margins tighter than in most of Punjab.
