ABPA looks to increase exports to China
The Brazilian Animal Protein Association (ABPA) is present at the China International Import Expo (CIIE), in Shanghai, and looks to increase meat exports to the Chinese market. One of the representatives of the association, who lives in Beijing, is present at the CIIE to consolidate and expand exports to China. Currently, Brazil exports to China 16% of poultry meat destined for the international market and 50% pig meat.
"Our participation aims to show that we have sanity and sustainability to enable new plants to intensify demand", declared Ricardo Santin, president of ABPA. Brazil aims to set a record in pork exports, reaching 1 million tonnes this year. The goal looks very realistic, as China has increased demand for Brazilian pork after the ASF outbreak in Germany.
