The company serves as a one-stop shop for producers and buyers of beef, poultry, pork, lamb, buffalo, and duck.

In addition, it offers solutions at all stages of the international trade for these products: financial, logistical, operational, and marketing.
Market Potential
China is the main destination for global meat exports, although the country’s demand for these products is slowing due to high carryover stock from 2023 and a slowdown in economic growth.
Nevertheless, the Chinese market is expected to import a total of 3.45 million tons of beef, 1.88 million tons of pork, and 800 thousand tons of poultry in 2024, according to projections from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).
For beef, most Chinese imports come from Brazil. In 2023, 2.2 million tons were exported, totaling USD 8.2 billion in revenue.
