These included countries in Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean, the Middle East, and Central Asia. Its global functions supported international sales, logistics, regulatory compliance, and market development for these export activities. As part of Wayne-Sanderson Farms, this international market presence is continued and potentially expanded through the combined entity's global network.
