After the long-standing embargo on Belgian pork exports to China was lifted in January 2024, let’s take a closer look at the Belgian meat sector with a visit to one of our members.
For three generations, the Danis family business has combined all aspects of pig farming into a single company. From breeding and genetics to animal feed, pig husbandry, slaughtering, cutting and deboning and recently also processing and packaging of high quality pork. In addition to pig farming, Danis handles various animal feed raw materials including oilseeds and protein sources.
Learn all about the Belgian meat sector and the company’s commercial relations with China during the BCECC’s “Company visit to Danis Group” on October 7, 2024 at 10:00 CET.
