Another 25 refrigerators authorized to export to China

Brazil will sell more meat to China, with another 25 refrigerators receiving authorization. On Monday (09/09), the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Supply (MAPA) received a statement from GACC, the Chinese health agency, informing the qualification of these plants for the export of meat to the Asian country.

Of the 25 authorized refrigerators, 17 are of beef production, six chicken, one pork, and one donkey. Companies can start exporting immediately. With the decision of the Chinese health agency, the number of plants enabled goes from 64 to 89.

Negotiations for GACC to expand the number of Brazilian refrigerators authorized to export to China were conducted by MAPA in conjunction with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Brazilian Embassy in Beijing.

In May, Minister Tereza Cristina and her entourage traveled to China and other Asian countries to expand the sale of Brazilian agricultural products.
