Mexico Remains Number One International Destination for US Beef
Tue, 26 Jan 2010 6:14:54 CST
Despite very difficult economic conditions, Mexico will finish 2009 as the leading volume and value market for U.S. beef exports and the top volume destination for U.S. pork. We talk about Mexico and their value to the US Red Meat Industry on today's Beef Buzz.
Chad Russell, U.S. Meat Export Federation regional director for Mexico, Central America and the Dominican Republic who is based in Mexico City, says Mexico's economy is showing some signs of improvement, and this should create a more positive business climate for USMEF marketing activities in 2010. He also cites Mexico's favorable market access conditions and excellent consumer acceptance of U.S. meat products as factors that should foster further growth of U.S. exports.
