Marfrig said the two-year deal with Banco do Brasil was part of its strategy to secure funding in a number of currencies.


“The transaction will further strengthen the solid cash position of the Marfrig Group and is part of the company’s strategy to diversify its funding sources across the various currencies of the countries where its operating plants are located,” the company said today (29 May).
