WASHINGTON — Mexican officials have recently barred six U.S. meat processors from exporting products to Mexico following a recent audit by Mexican officials. But the "whys" behind their move remain a mystery.
Two companies on this list — Caviness Beef Packers Ltd. and Walt's Wholesale Meats — have told reporters they are not even exporting meat products to Mexico. Cargill Meat Solutions officials have been quoted as saying the company has not been given any reasons for its Friona, Texas facility being delisted.
Other meat plants cited include: JBS Swift & Co., Cactus, Texas; Tyson Fresh Meats Inc. Waterloo, Iowa; and Washington Beef LLC, Toppenish, Wash.
