The National Animal Health and Quality Service (Senacsa) confirmed the official approval of the Philippines for the import of Paraguayan meat in three categories: beef, pork, and poultry. The notification was sent by the health authorities of the Asian country, consolidating a new step in the expansion of markets for national production.
The Philippines, with a population of around 115 million, is one of the largest countries in Southeast Asia and registers import levels close to 1.5 million tons of these three species, a volume that triples Paraguay’s production.
José Carlos Martin, president of Senacsa, welcomed the news and highlighted that it represents “a recognition of the joint effort of producers, industry, and the Paraguayan State in maintaining a reliable and predictable sanitary policy.”
