Over the past year, the Certified Angus Beef brand sold a record 1.2 billion pounds of product. In the 40th year of the brand, CAB Producer Communications Specialist Nicole Erceg says there was growth across all segments. “One area of tremendous growth was in international sales, which was up 18 percent this year. That’s about 207 million pounds of Certified Angus Beef going overseas,” says Erceg. In addition, a record number of CAB cattle were also harvested. “The average was about 100,000 certified head a week. It’s incredible to see those supply numbers coming through and see that record supply being matched by record sales.”
