Colombia gains access to Chilean beef market
28/04/2017
The Agricultural and Livestock Service of Chile (SAG) gave its approval to the import of Colombian beef in April 2016. Following a process of certification and validation, including for health and sanitation, market access has now been granted.
The first companies to have been approved are: Frigocolanta, Manzanares, Cárnica Roja S.A.S. and Planta Ecológica de Beneficio Animal Río Frío S.A.
“Chile imports more than $800 million of meat from the world per year,” said María Claudia Lacouture, Colombia’s minister of commerce, industry, and tourism. “We have a new opportunity to take advantage of this market.”
