Brazil opens market for export of processed bones to Mexico

Brazilian agribusiness has secured another important international market opening. The Brazilian and Mexican governments have concluded health negotiations and approved the international certification model that allows the export of processed bones from Brazil to the Mexican market.

With relevant applications in the production of animal feed, gelatin, collagen, and fertilizers, processed bones are a strategic raw material for various segments of the agribusiness industry. The agreement meets Mexico's growing demand for industrial inputs and represents a step forward in the consolidation of sustainable trade relations between the two countries.

In 2024 alone, Mexico imported more than US$1.5 billion worth of Brazilian agricultural products, particularly soybeans, animal proteins, coffee, and forestry products. The inclusion of processed bones in the export portfolio further expands this portfolio and opens up new opportunities for Brazilian industries.

With this announcement, Brazil reaches the milestone of 397 open markets since the beginning of 2023, reflecting the country's ongoing efforts to expand access for its agricultural products on the global stage.
