Panama exports chicken byproducts as meal and oil

prensa.com (Spanish)

Panama is now exporting over 22 containers monthly of chicken meal and oil, derived from poultry byproducts, turning waste into a profitable export business. This initiative, stemming from a 2004 waste reduction project, processes over 250,000 pounds of chicken parts daily, including viscera, feathers, and blood. The resulting products are used in pet food and aquaculture feed, primarily exported to Central America. The company, Redeprosa, was awarded for its sustainable practices, which have grown to meet regional demand. The market for these products is expected to continue growing, driven by the pet food and aquaculture industries.
