Three meat processing plants in Bolivia have recently obtained permits to export beef to five countries in the Eurasian Economic Union, namely FRIGOR Meat Factory, FRIDOSA Meat Factory and BFC Meat Factory.

The Bolivia website “bolivia.com” reported that the Minister of Rural Development and Land of Bolivia, Eliane Capobianco, told Juan Carlos Abu, chairman of the Congabol Association of Livestock Producers, on September 25. Lallah (Juan Carlos Abularach) issued a beef export license to Russia, Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, which are members of the Eurasian Economic Union.

Capobiaco said: "In today's difficult economic times caused by the new coronavirus pandemic, we will benefit from these newly opened markets."

Abrarach said that before Bolivian beef was granted export licenses to the five countries of the Eurasian Economic Union, a technical inspection team composed of 6 animal health and food safety experts from the Russian Federal Veterinary and Phytosanitary Supervision Service had conducted a technical inspection mission on Bolivian meat production. The sanitary conditions and the production capacity of the meat processing plant were inspected to verify compliance with Russia and the Eurasian Economic Union meat import standards.

It is reported that Bolivia currently has more than 20,000 tons of beef available for export, which will bring at least more than 100 million US dollars in economic income. Official data show that from January to August 2020, Bolivian beef exports totaled 7688.9 tons, with a total export value of 34.3 million US dollars. China is the largest buyer of Bolivian beef, followed by the Andean Community.
