Marfrig Benefits From BRF's Strength Amidst Cattle Shortage

Marfrig Benefits From BRF's Strength Amidst Cattle Shortage

Marfrig, a meat company, is doing okay even though they are having trouble with a shortage of cattle in the US.

They own a beef producer that is having to pay more for cows.

However, the company also owns BRF, a poultry and processed-food company that did better than expected.

Also, people like chicken more than ever right now.

This helped Marfrig.

They are buying BRF and expect to finish soon.

Although, there was also a bird flu outbreak in May which did impact the company's exports.
