“New opportunity”: after the European reopening, Argentina managed to open the South Korean market for poultry meat

After obtaining the authorizations to send meat to the European Union (EU) and the United Kingdom last week, now the Government announced the reopening of the market South Korea for such products.

As reported by the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs of the Republic of Korea (Mafra) modified the current health regulations and once again included Argentina among the countries authorized to export poultry meat.

He did so after evaluating the epidemiological information presented by the National Agri-Food Health and Quality Service (Senasa).

This way, “South Korea reopened its market for Argentine poultry meat as of August 10, 2026”reported the national portfolio.

For Agriculture, “the reopening of this market represents a new opportunity for the Argentine poultry value chain, by contributing to the expansion of possibilities of international insertion of the national agroindustry”.

On the other hand, the Secretariat reported that on August 10, the audit of Argentine establishments interested in exporting fishing and seafood products to South Korea was completed “satisfactorily,” another significant step to continue expanding and consolidating the access of Argentine agroindustrial products to that market.

These results correlate with the recent visit of the President of the Republic of Korea, Lee Jae Myung, to Argentina on July 31, they said.
