Livestock and Products Semi-annual

March 20, 2024

Lower feed prices are expected to boost producer profits in 2024, thereby increasing domestic beef and pork production. Beef imports are forecast to decrease, and pork imports are expected to remain nearly flat. Higher beef prices in 2024 are expected to constrain beef consumption to a marginal increase and lead to higher pork consumption as consumers shift from beef to relatively less expensive pork. Factors such as increased support from social welfare programs, less headline inflation, increased minimum wages, and hotel, restaurant, and institution (HRI) sector demand support beef and pork consumption.

Único Sabor Americano

Único Sabor Americano was created to make it easier for people in Mexico to recognize and enjoy the wide variety of high-quality, healthy, and delicious foods and beverages imported from the United States. While many already know that U.S. products are trusted worldwide for their quality, it’s not always obvious which items on store shelves actually come from the U.S. That’s where the brand comes in.

More than just a label, Único Sabor Americano celebrates the connection between Mexico and the United States. By highlighting cultural elements that both countries share, the brand helps people see U.S. foods as part of their daily lives. The goal is to show that American products can seamlessly complement local traditions and flavors, offering variety, nutrition, and inspiration in everyday meals. In doing so, Único Sabor Americano promotes not only great products, but also the strong bond between our two nations.
