Secretary Rollins Announces 8 Additional Companies Joining USDA’s Product of USA Label Initiative

U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke L. Rollins today announced that 8 additional meat and poultry companies have adopted USDA’s voluntary Product of USA (POTUSA) label, building on the strong momentum behind the Trump Administration’s efforts to help consumers easily identify products that are truly born, raised, harvested, and processed in the United States. With today’s announcement, more than 30 companies have committed to the label since USDA launched its nationwide campaign earlier this year.

As more processors adopt the Product of USA label, American families heading to the grocery store or local supplier this holiday season can shop with greater confidence that when they purchase products bearing the claim, they are directly supporting American farmers, ranchers, processors, and rural communities.

“From the pasture to the dinner table, American families deserve to know that their food is American through and through. And as of today, 8 more companies are adding the Product of USA label to their product,” said Secretary of Agriculture Brooke L. Rollins. “Every company that adopts the Product of USA label is standing with our ranchers, our processors, and our rural communities. Now available in all 50 states, families can gather around the table this holiday season and be able to choose meat and poultry raised right here in America. Under President Trump’s leadership, USDA will keep working every day to put American farmers and ranchers first.”

As Ted Seifried said in Market Plus, the model has changed — and we also hear about the competitiveness of the U.S. in the export market.
