Brazilian beef factories have suspended production for the United States, and a large quantity of in-transit goods will be diverted to China

Affected by the U.S. policy of imposing an additional 50% tariff on all imported products from Brazil, Brazilian beef processing enterprises have decided to temporarily suspend beef production and processing operations specifically for the U.S. market. Roberto Perosa, President of the Brazilian Meatpackers' Association (Abiec), pointed out that this tariff measure has made it necessary to renegotiate all signed export contracts to the United States. Perosa emphasized that under the current tariff level, Brazil's beef exports to the United States in 2025 are no longer economically viable.

Based on this, the previous expectation of the Brazilian industry to double the volume of beef exports to the United States in 2025 will be reassessed. At the same time, there is uncertainty about the follow-up handling plans for container goods currently stranded at Brazilian ports or in the middle of sea transportation, which are destined for the United States. It is expected that most of the goods originally planned to be shipped to the United States will be diverted to alternative markets, mainly including China, Southeast Asia and the Middle East.

"Market adjustment strategies include seeking new international partners and exploring access to potential emerging markets. However, the most direct solution is to redirect goods to existing export markets, especially China, Southeast Asia and the Middle East. These markets are the industry's primary alternatives when the U.S. market is temporarily unable to accept them," he stated at the event.

Perosa said that the industry is still "conducting in-depth evaluations" on how to adjust the production layout to achieve product transfer. He is currently in the United States and plans to meet with representatives of importers. "We are closely monitoring the progress of intergovernmental negotiations and actively collaborating with importers at the private level to explore ways to try to prompt the U.S. government to adjust its policy stance on Brazilian products."

受美国对巴西所有进口产品加征50%关税政策影响，巴西牛肉加工企业已决定临时中止专门面向美国市场的牛肉生产与加工业务。巴西肉类出口工业协会（Abiec）主席罗伯托·佩罗萨（Roberto Perosa）指出，此项关税措施导致已签署的对美出口合同均需重新谈判。佩罗萨强调，在当前关税水平下，2025年度的巴西对美牛肉出口在经济效益上已不具备可行性。

基于此，巴西业界此前关于2025年实现对美牛肉出口量翻倍的预期将被重新评估。同时，对于目前滞留巴西港口或正在海运途中的、目的地为美国的集装箱货物，其后续处理方案也存在不确定性。预计原计划输美的绝大部分货物将被转移至替代市场，主要包括中国、东南亚及中东地区。

“市场调整策略包括通过寻求新的国际合作伙伴、探索潜在的新兴市场准入。然而，最直接的解决方案是将货物重新定向至现有出口市场，尤其是中国、东南亚和中东地区。在美国市场暂时无法接纳的情况下，这些市场是行业的首要备选方案，”他在活动中阐述。

佩罗萨表示，行业目前仍在“深入评估”如何调整生产布局以实现产品转移。他本人目前在美国，计划与进口商代表会晤。“我们正密切关注政府间谈判进展，并在私营层面与进口商积极协作，探讨如何尝试促使美国政府调整其对巴西产品的政策立场。”
