US: NCC hails Malaysian, Cambodian trade pacts

These landmark deals will significantly expand opportunities for American agricultural exports—including U.S. poultry—by reducing tariffs and removing long-standing non-tariff barriers.

“On behalf of America’s chicken producers, I would like to thank President Trump, Secretary Rollins and US Trade Representative Greer for their work negotiating trade deals that stand to benefit U.S. chicken”, said National Chicken Council (NCC) President Harrison Kircher. “Knocking down trade barriers and opening new markets to free and fair trade are critical to the future success of American chicken exports and we commend the administration for the expanded access in Cambodia and Malaysia”.

Under the new U.S.–Cambodia Agreement on Reciprocal Trade, Cambodia has committed to eliminating tariffs on 100 percent of U.S. exports, including poultry and egg products, while also recognizing U.S. sanitary and phytosanitary standards. Similarly, the U.S.–Malaysia agreement opens new doors for American producers by streamlining regulatory processes, addressing technical trade barriers, and improving transparency in agricultural trade.
