The Trump administration will today announce that Morocco has agreed to import U.S. poultry meat and products for the first time.
It's a new market that is welcome news for industry amid a torrent of new tariffs, but the Moroccan market is also relatively small. Initial estimates suggest Morocco could be a $10 million market "with additional growth over time," according to an announcement from USDA and the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative. U.S. poultry had been blocked over phytosanitary issues and other bureaucratic hurdles.
