The offal trade is an important component of the broader livestock industry, contributing to the efficient utilization of animal resources and supporting the livelihoods of farmers and processors worldwide.

Production process

The production of frozen edible offal typically involves the slaughter of the animals, followed by the careful separation and cleaning of the desired organ meats.
