The main market for Argentine beef, China, with 16,900 tons of bone-in and boneless beef, and 35,100 tons of boneless beef, accounted for 78.8% of the volume exported in November. In value, these shipments accounted for US$ 26.4 million and US$ 123.8 million respectively, equivalent to 57.6% of the total invoiced by Argentina. In the first 11 months of 2024, exports of frozen boneless beef to this country fell 3% in volume and 12% in value, with 358,289 tons for US$ 1,198.6 million. On the other hand, shipments of bone-in and bone-in meat from the butchered sector increased by 43.7% in volume and 51.3% in value compared to the same period of the previous year, with a total of 166,756 tons for US$ 250 million.

According to reports from Argentine websites "agroclave.com.ar" and "infonegocios.info" on the 4th, the Argentine Beef Promotion Association has set up an Argentine beef pavilion at the CIIE venue. 14 Argentine beef exporters including APEA, ArreBeef, and Bustos Beltrán will show the audience the superior quality of their country's beef, and at the same time look forward to taking this opportunity to consolidate the momentum of beef export prices recovering in recent months. Mario Lavertino, vice president of the Argentine Beef Promotion Association Ravettino stressed that China is the primary export customer of Argentine beef. He said: "China is the primary export destination. In September alone, more than 16,000 tons of Argentine bone-in beef were shipped to the Chinese market, worth $24 million. In addition, (Argentina) also exported about 36,000 tons of boneless beef to China, worth $109 million." Ravettino also said that in September, 68.5% of Argentina's exported beef was sold to China. From a full-year perspective, beef exported to China accounted for 73% of Argentina's total beef exports. This shows that the Chinese market is very important. On the other hand, Daniel Urcia, a representative of the Argentine Regional Refrigeration Industry Federation (FiFra), Urcía stressed: "This (China) is a market that attracts much attention, and major companies always look forward to participating in the two annual exhibitions, one of which is the (China International Import Expo) held this week." Urcía also said: "We are committed not only to strengthening our relationship with Chinese customers, but also to promoting high-quality beef and competing with rivals who have a larger share of the Chinese market." Argentine beef exporters predict that with the sharp rise in Brazilian beef prices, the market position of Argentine beef will improve. In addition to meat products, high-quality grain feed products are also expected to usher in opportunities.

The event will take place until November 10, when local producers seek to strengthen relations with the Chinese market, which since 2018 represents more than 70% of the export volume of the Argentine meat market. This was indicated by Daniel Urcia, from the Federation of Regional Argentine Refrigeration Industries for Added Agricultural Value.
