Japan OKs 35th U.S plant for beef exports

by John Gregerson on 8/16/2006 for Meatingplace.com


After passing inspection by Japanese authorities last week, a 35th U.S. processing plant has been given the green light to export beef to Tokyo.

The plant, located in California, is a Brawley Beef facility. Brawley was purchased by Kansas City, Mo.-based National Beef Packing Co. earlier this year.

Japanese authorities also signed off on an American Foods Group plant in Green Bay, Wis. The plant previously was given permission to export to Japan provided the U.S. government supervised its operations.
