About meat and edible offal; of turkeys, cuts and offal, frozen

This industry plays an important role in the global food supply chain, providing a versatile and affordable protein source for consumers worldwide.

Production process

The production of frozen turkey meat and offal involves several key steps. After the turkeys are raised and slaughtered, the carcasses are processed to separate the meat and offal. The meat is then cut into various parts, such as breasts, legs, and wings. The offal, including the liver, heart, and gizzard, is also collected. Both the meat and offal are then frozen, typically using blast freezing or cryogenic freezing techniques, to preserve their quality and extend their shelf life.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of frozen turkey meat and offal include live turkeys, which are the primary raw material. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized processing equipment, such as slaughtering, cutting, and freezing machinery.
