Currently, the refrigeration plant, known in the meat sector as the former Fricop, belonged until last year to the local company. Mattievich, manages just over 15,000 head per month and directly employs 600 people. The goal now is to bring work to more than 20,000 head per month, while all production facilities will be upgraded.

Of course, one of the qualities of this refrigeration plant is that it is authorized by health organizations to export to China. Coto is seeking to develop in this market that requires more and more animal protein.
