Canada Secures Guatemala Market For Canadian Meat Products
Minister of agriculture and agri-food, Marie-Claude Bibeau announced that the government of Canada has regained market access to Guatemala for Canada’s pork, beef and poultry products
Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada
Guatemala previously closed access to its market for Canadian meat products in December 2013, due to new requirements to inspect facilities in Canada for approval of exports. Since 2013, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, with the support of Agriculture and Agri-food Canada, has been negotiating access for Canada’s meat products to Guatemala.
As part of this market access, Canadian exports of beef, pork and poultry meat products produced on or after April 17, 2023, are now eligible to be exported to Guatemala.
“The success of Canadian agriculture depends heavily on Canada’s ability to export to the world, and Guatemala presents many opportunities for our exporters”
