A delegation from National Beef arrived in Sгo Paulo, Brazil on Sept. 17 for a series of visits to Marfrig Global Food’s operations in South America.
The visit by the group, led by National Beef CEO Tim Klein, marks the progress in the integration of Marfrig’s South and North American operations. In April this year, the company acquired a 51 percent interest in National Beef, the fourth largest beef processor in the United States. In August, it announced the organization of its businesses into two major operations: South America covering Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina and Chile; and North America, which includes National Beef.
Klein will be accompanied on the site visits by Marcos Molina, chairman of the board of directors of the company, Eduardo Miron, CEO of Marfrig Global Foods and Miguel Gularte, CEO of the South American operation.
