The U.S. Meat Export Federation (USMEF) is conducting a U.S. Red Meat Symposium, April 14-17 in Mexico City, which will allow U.S. exporters to meet face-to-face with importers and other prospective customers from throughout Mexico. This is the second edition of the symposium, with the first being held in the summer of 2024. The event is made possible through support from USDA, the National Pork Board, the Beef Checkoff Program and the Nebraska Beef Council. Gerardo Rodriguez, USMEF regional director for Mexico and Central America, said the inaugural symposium was created so that USMEF could match exporters with the best prospects for expanding their business in Mexico.
A delegation of U.S. producers and other industry leaders will also participate in the symposium and tour retail outlets in Mexico City to see firsthand how U.S. red meat is merchandised and promoted in this critical market.
