Lucia Ruano, USMEF’s Central America representative, joined RFD-TV’s Market Day Report to share insights from the event and discuss what’s driving demand for U.S. beef and pork in the region.
Ruano highlighted the factors driving rising consumer demand, as well as how USMEF is engaging with buyers and consumers to strengthen awareness and loyalty for U.S. red meat products. She also discussed this summer’s Latin American Product Showcase in Guatemala, which brought together buyers from across the region.
