New export approvals for US meat facilities from China
The North American Meat Institute has announced that it welcomes the successful outcome of USDA's continuous work to increase US beef market access to China one year after U.S. beef exports to the country resumed.
"The approval of these additional 20 U.S. facilities serves to bolster this momentum, and the Meat Institute looks forward to working closely with USDA and our members to ensure more U.S. beef suppliers become eligible to export their high-quality products to China," said the North American Meat Institute President and CEO Barry Carpenter.
"Unfortunately, because of escalating trade friction with China, U.S. beef suppliers may not be able to reach their true export potential in the Chinese market. To avoid the adverse consequences that come from such disagreements, the Meat Institute urges China and the U.S. to work diligently to resolve any differences and to do so as soon as possible," Mr. Carpenter added.
According to the NAMI president, beef exports to China/Hong Kong have increased 23 percent in volume and 51 percent in value since last year, with good potential for further growth in 2018.
