Uruguay produces about 550 thousand tons of beef meat a year, 180 thousand tons are internally consumed and 370 thousand tons are exported. The destinations of said exports are more than 100 countries in the five continents, to which Uruguay can access thanks to its privileged sanitary conditions and its very reliable traceability system. Meat export represents almost a 25% of the country’s exports.

World consumers recognise the quality of Uruguayan meats for their natural pastoral production, performed in great animal welfare conditions, added to the genetic quality that the British breeds raised in our fields provides.

DOLLARIZATION

Unlike other regional markets, cattle in Uruguay is always bought and sold in American dollars. This grants the business a better shield against rate of exchange gaps.

LIQUIDITY / CASH FLOW

Unlike other businesses in the agricultural market, with cattle there is no need to wait for a tree to bloom to see utilities neither we depend on a harvest to get profits. Cattle is essentially liquid, since the day it is bought to the end, cattle business can be carried out immediately, selling it and receiving payment in cash.

TAX ADVANTAGES

Investments on livestock are not computable for Equity Tax. Besides, these placements are not computable for IRPF (Personal Income Taxes) freeing the returns of their heavy tax burden. This is why Tradición Ganadera handles animals under the name of each investor. Later, and depending on the business settlement and to whom the cattle is sold, IMEBA could be taxed or also the Municipal Tax of1% could be not taxed.
