December’s World Cup in Qatar gave a massive boost to Tecon Rio Grande (TRG), the box terminal owned and operated by Wilson, Sons in Brazil’s southernmost state.

Between January and the end of November 2022, TRG doubled its boxed exports to the Middle East country, compared to the same period in 2021, with frozen chicken accounting for around 85 per cent of the total. For processed chicken, 495 reefers were shipped.
