Brazilian packer closes its doors
15/07/2010
Frigorifico Pantanal has temporarily closed its three abattoirs in the state, which, together, slaughtered 1,500 head of cattle a day.
Local media sources have suggested that, while packers and livestock farmers in the region have, for the most part, a good relationship, many smaller packer firms are running into cash flow problems owing to the reluctance among some retail groups to pay their suppliers in full and on time.
