Cultivating Strong Relationships with Our Partners

As a company, we are proud to work alongside successful businesses such as Supermercados Peruanos S.A. (SPSA), one of the largest supermarket chains in Peru. Under the sponsorship of the South Dakota Soybean Program and the United States Poultry and Egg Council (USAPEEC), we have been able to develop a strong relationship with SPSA and increase sales of American poultry products in their stores, allowing us to reach more customers in Peru and increase the import of American poultry products.

Supermercados Peruanos S.A. (SPSA), which operates under four different brands, including PlazaVea, Vivanda, Mass, and Makro, has 646 stores throughout Peru and has become one of the few companies with 100% Peruvian capital, and they continue to expand their reach.

In November 2023, the United States Poultry and Egg Council (USAPEEC), sponsored by the South Dakota Soybean Research and Promotion Council,  conducted the “Trade Show and Poultry Sampling Event” in Lima, Peru, which allowed over 220 attendees to sample American poultry products available in the Peruvian market and make contacts in the HRI sector, including hotels, caterers, restaurants, chefs, importers, food distributors, and supermarkets. One of the many attendees was Supermercados Peruanos S.A. (SPSA). Following the event, the imported value of American poultry products to Supermercados Peruanos S.A. (SPSA) increased significantly from January to December 2023, with a 159% increase in metric tons and a 161% increase in value, compared to the same period in 2022, demonstrating the growing demand for American poultry products in Peru and our commitment to securing success for our partners.

We remain hopeful about the future of our partnership with Supermercados Peruanos S.A. (SPSA) and the potential for growth of American poultry products in the South and Central American market.
