Overview
The whole pork carcass gives cutting plants complete control of their pork program — every primal, every by-product, one purchase. BMGFoods.com exports frozen halved carcasses to weight and fat specification from veterinary-approved plants.
BMGFoods.com supplies frozen whole pork carcass produced in veterinary-certified, export-approved plants operating HACCP-based food-safety systems. Every consignment is blast frozen to a core temperature of −18 °C immediately after packing and travels through an unbroken, monitored cold chain from plant to your destination port. Specifications are agreed in writing at quotation stage and locked on the proforma invoice, so the product loaded is the product you contracted.
Detailed Description
Carcasses are dressed to export standard — scalded and dehaired or skinned per specification, head-on or head-off, leaf fat in or out — then split into halves for reefer loading at typical carcass weights of 60–100 kg. Buyers specify weight band, backfat depth class and presentation details. Halves are poly-wrapped, blast frozen and hand-loaded, giving in-market cutters full yield across belly, loin, ham, shoulder and trim.
Market Demand
Pork carcass trade serves markets with in-country cutting economics — Eastern Europe, the Caucasus, parts of Asia and Latin America — and processors who capture value across every primal simultaneously.
Applications
- Cutting and deboning plants: full in-house pork primal production
- Processors: complete raw material control for sausage and cured lines

Production Process & Inspection
Animals are received and rested under veterinary supervision and processed in accordance with the plant's approved procedures. Product destined for this specification is prepared on inspected cutting lines with in-process checks on trim, weight range and packing integrity. After packing, cartons pass metal detection, are blast frozen to −18 °C core temperature, and move into monitored cold storage pending container loading. Official veterinary inspection covers every production lot; independent pre-shipment inspection (SGS or equivalent) can be arranged on request, with a loading photo report covering product condition, temperatures and container seal.
