USMEF will Cosponsor Seminar on Improving Sanitary Conditions

USMEF, in cooperation with the United States of America Poultry and Eggs Export Council (USAPEEC) and others, have organized a seminar in Guadalajara, Mexico that will focus on qualifying abattoirs to become TIF plants (federally inspected plants). The seminar, presented by ANEDOPCA, (the association of Mexican slaughterhouse and processing plants), will take place February 8 and focus on procedures, technical guidelines and financial information that will assist and educate traditional abattoir owners on how to improve sanitary conditions. With only 400 TIF plants currently in Mexico, and 2,464 traditional abattoirs, USMEF views this seminar as a valuable resource in generating interest and action in companies who want to improve their sanitary procedures in order to pursue a TIF plant certification. In addition, the seminar will help create an environment where U.S. meat importers work with competitors that are regulated by the system and eliminate what can be seen in other markets as “unfair competition.”
