Agriculture and Agri-Food Minister Heath MacDonald was on hand for a ribbon-cutting ceremony Wednesday in front of a cooler filled with porterhouse, New York prime and other cuts of Alberta beef at a Costco in an upscale suburb just beyond the western edge of Mexico City.

“Days like today open the doors for the future and we’ll just see this grow, without a doubt,” said MacDonald, in an interview with CBC News following the event.

The recent agreement between JBS Canada and Costco Mexico is already seeing about 20,000 tonnes of beef, processed in Brooks, Alta., sent to 41 Costcos across Mexico.

Salvador Hernandez, director for JBS Mexico, said the Costco deal has provided Canadian beef a “new frontier” in a market dominated by U.S. beef.

Could depend on the daily tariff scorecard or just aggressive Canadian suppliers.

Stay tuned.
