TASHKENT, UZBEKISTAN – In a move to bolster bilateral trade and food security within the Halal sector, the Central Asia Group (CAG) has successfully coordinated the initial phase of a collaboration between Malaysia’s Jaafar Industries Sdn Bhd and Uzbekistan’s leading meat producer, MEGA TRANSTRADING LLC.
This partnership, initiated by CAG, is set to establish a new food trade corridor, focusing on the mutual exchange of high-quality, ready-to-eat Halal meat products. The initial phase will see MEGA TRANSTRADING LLC’s products introduced to the Malaysian market, with a strategic view to expanding across the ASEAN region.
