The Vice Minister of Marketing and Food Production, Francisco Fonseca, recently stated that Venezuela currently has a 100% food supply.
According to the official, supermarket shelves are fully stocked, offering greater availability of products and brands in the national market.
Fonseca stated: “Today we can speak of 100 % shelf supply,” the official maintained, attributing this situation to policies implemented by the National Council for Productive Economy.
The Vice Minister highlighted the effectiveness of state-run food distribution programs such as the Sovereign Field Fairs, the Mercal stores, and the network of the Venezuelan Food Production and Distribution Company (PDVAL).
According to Fonseca, the country currently has sufficient capacity to supply the domestic market with animal protein and also projects exports to neighboring countries. “Venezuela has the capacity to export all its animal protein to neighboring countries because we already have a significant market supply,” he added.
He noted that “domestic chicken production closed 2015 at 294,000 tons, while the goal for this year is to reach 330,000 tons, according to the balance of the first five months.”
