The NPB international market development task force traveled to Chile last week on a market diversification trip.
The task force met with global industry leaders to promote U.S. pork in Central and South America. They also visited a U.S. pork processing facility, toured the Port of San Antonio (Chile) where imports come into the country and tasted U.S. pork at a Santiago restaurant.
Chile was the 11th largest U.S. pork market in 2021 with exports valued at $111 million, which equates to about 70 million pounds of pork.
In-country visits like this are an opportunity to promote the high quality of U.S. pork to importers.
The results of this trip will inform a market diversification study being conducted by Gira, an independent market research firm.
