Factors for increasing competitiveness of meat processing enterprises

Meat and meat products occupy a special place in Kazakhstan, as they are historically one of the main national products and are a source of protein which is necessary for life.

The goal is to develop the main ways to increase the competitiveness of products in meat processing industry of the AIC. The meat processing industry is one of the main ones in the agro-industrial complex. Its structure is quite static, as it consists of two interrelated elements - livestock farms and meat processing enterprises that depend on food market.

Methods – comparative, statistical, economic and system analysis, logical generalization.

Results – Kazakhstan, which has a high potential for the development of animal husbandry, may be among the world leaders in meat processing sector. To solve this problem, it is necessary to strengthen economic base of processing enterprises, including meat processing enterprises, and to increase the competitiveness of their products in global commodity market of meat processing sector.

Conclusions – meat industry as a structural element of the AIC has developed on the basis of the functioning of integral production and economic system in a single technological chain. For the effective development of the country's meat processing industry, it is necessary to create a rational system of production and economic relations. The level of meat production in the republic does not yet satisfy the needs of the population. The livestock production of the republic has not yet switched to intensive methods of production and processing.
