SuKarne, a multinational processor based in Culiac\\xe1n, Sinaloa, Mexico, continues to grow its business around Latin America and now is making a big push into the US market. It\\u2019s one of the reasons why the company is the subject of MEAT+POULTRY\\u2019s September cover story.

Editor Joel Crews traveled to Mexicali, Mexico, a border town near San Diego, to see the operations at one of SuKarne\\u2019s beef plants. Crews was struck by the vertically integrated strategy the company has based its expansion on, where feed production, feedlots and processing facilities are combined at the same site. The operations mirror many US plants in terms of processing technology, production volume, food safety interventions and product quality.
