Opportunity Cuts: USMEF's marketing programs are designed to increase exports of underutilized and undervalued cuts. Learn about the markets to which specific cuts are targeted, and how they are prepared, packaged and merchandised.

In addition, USMEF’s international directors will present market updates, and USMEF will unveil its strategic marketing plan. USMEF BOD meetings allow members to learn about the challenges and opportunities facing the export markets and to give their input on the future direction of USMEF marketing programs.
