About Council

The USA Poultry & Egg Export Council (USAPEEC) is a non-profit, industry-sponsored trade organization dedicated to increasing exports of U.S. poultry and egg food products in all foreign markets. USAPEEC was founded in 1984 with a grant from the Southeastern Poultry and Egg Association, now the U.S. Poultry and Egg Association.

Today, USAPEEC members account for more than 90 percent of all poultry and egg exports. Members include nearly all major U.S. poultry and egg producing and processing companies, as well as many international trading firms. Associate members of USAPEEC include steamship lines, cold storage facilities, freight forwarders, port authorities and others whose businesses benefit from thriving poultry and egg exports.

USAPEEC's world headquarters is located in Stone Mountain, Georgia, near Atlanta. In addition, the council has offices in Hong Kong, Beijing, Singapore, Moscow, Shanghai, Monterrey and Mexico City, and retains consultants in Johannesburg, Seoul, Tokyo, Europe and the Middle East.

In February 2005 USAPEEC considered it timely to higher Bella Ablaeva as a Consultant to cover Central Asia and Eastern Europe.
