Brazil-Based BRF Receives Export Clearance from Oman Under New Approval System

BRF S.A., the world’s largest poultry exporter with a 12% global market share, stated that it has received approval to export as much as 5,000 tons of meat products per month, to Oman.

BRF which has a commercial presence in Oman for over 30 years, stated that Omani food safety and religious officials visited its facilities in Brazil in 2019.

The company has received fifteen permits in total, for facilities located across six states in Brazil.

BRF further cited that Oman, which is part of the fast-growing global Halal market, has revised its approval process. Previously, it would give accreditation to an entire country to allow exports into Oman, now each facility needs to be approved and cleared individually.
