NEW YORK, May 2, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:

Meat, Poultry & Seafood Packaging Market

http://www.reportlinker.com/p060997/Meat-Poultry–Seafood-Packaging-Market.html

Case-ready packaging, rising exports to fuel gains

US demand for meat, poultry and seafood packaging will increase 3.0 percent per annum to $9.2 billion in 2015. Gains will be fueled by expanding meat, poultry and seafood production, as well as increasing export opportunities to countries such as Japan and Chile. Packaging demand will also be stimulated by the ongoing shift to case-ready packaging by many retailers as a means of reducing in-store labor costs. Case-ready packaging generally uses more expensive trays and high barrier films, thus bolstering value gains. Packaging demand will also be aided by the increasing incorporation of value added features such as zipper closures; the expanding number of meat and poultry items in smaller, more convenient sizes; and the growing range of products that are further processed. Many such products, which are favored by consumers for their easy preparation and storage capabilities, tend to use more packaging relative to their volume than larger unprocessed items. Value gains will be limited by a moderation in prices of such raw materials as paper and metal.

Flexible packaging to outpace rigid packaging

Flexible packaging demand will continue to outpace rigid packaging, increasing at a 3.7 percent annual rate to $3.7 billion in 2015. Gains will be bolstered by good opportunities for high barrier film and pouches. Demand for high barrier film will benefit from a favorable outlook for case-ready packaging, which requires value-added materials to prolong shelf life and protect contents during shipping and handling. Pouch demand will be driven by further inroads by retort pouches into traditional can applications and healthy gains for stand-up pouches in frozen meat, poultry and seafood applications stemming from pouches’ enhanced visual appeal, reseal ability and ability to be stored vertically in freezer cases. Below-average growth in rigid packaging will reflect maturity in the large corrugated box segment and minimal advances for metal cans. However, plastic containers and trays will post robust gains. Demand for plastic containers will be driven by heightened demand for prepared meat and poultry items in supermarkets and other retail locations as a result of consumer preference for convenience foods that require little or no preparation. Tray demand will be aided by the growing use of case-ready packaging, which often employs larger foam or more costly rigid barrier trays. Increasing use of more expensive biodegradable trays will also stimulate value gains. Demand for packaging accessories will benefit from regulations requiring nutrition information and country-of-origin labels on a variety of meat and poultry items.

Ready-to-eat market to post fastest growth

The ready-to-eat market will log the fastest increases, driven by the growing range of prepared foods in the retail sector. Demand in the fresh and frozen market will be supported by the rising presence of case-ready and modified atmosphere packaging to extend the shelf life of fresh meat, poultry and seafood. In the processed market, demand will be helped by the continued popularity of resealable plastic tubs for sliced lunch meats.

Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp From the Socialist Republic of
Vietnam: Notice of Court Decision Not in Harmony With Final Results of
Administrative Review and Notice of Amended Final Results of
Administrative Review Pursuant to Court Decision

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On April 14, 2011, the United States Court of International
Trade (``CIT'') sustained the Department of Commerce's (``the
Department'') results of redetermination pursuant to the CIT's remand
order in Amanda Foods (Vietnam) Ltd., et al., v. United States, Consol.
Court No. 08-00301 (June 17, 2010).\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Final Results Of Redetermination Pursuant To Court
Remand, Court No. 08-00301, dated December 3, 2010, available at:

United States, Court No. 08-00301 (CIT April 14, 2011) Slip Op. 11-

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Consistent with the decision of the United States Court of Appeals
for the Federal Circuit (``CAFC'') in Timken Co. v. United States, 893
F.2d 337 (Fed. Cir. 1990) (``Timken''), as clarified by Diamond
Sawblades Mfrs. Coalition v. United States, F.3d, Court No. 2010-1024,
1090 (Fed. Cir. December 9, 2010) (``Diamond Sawblades''), the
Department is notifying the public that the final judgment in this case
is not in harmony with the Department's final determination and is
amending the final results of the administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on certain frozen warmwater shrimp from the
Socialist Republic of Vietnam covering the period of review (``POR'')
of February 1, 2006 through January 31, 2007, with respect to the
separate rate margins assigned to Amanda Foods (Vietnam) Ltd.; C.P.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    In the second administrative review of the antidumping duty order
on shrimp from Vietnam, the Department reviewed

[[Page 27992]]

63 companies. See Final Results, 73 FR at 52275. Of those 63 companies,
two companies were selected for individual examination, 26 cooperative,
non-individually examined respondents demonstrated eligibility for, and
received, a separate rate, and 35 companies were considered part of the
Vietnam-Wide entity because they did not demonstrate eligibility for a
separate rate. The Department explained in the Final Results that the
statute and the Department's regulations do not directly address the
establishment of a rate to be applied to companies not selected for
individual examination where the Department has limited its examination
in an administrative review pursuant to section 777(A)(c)(2) of the
Act. The Department's practice in this regard, in cases involving
limited selection based on exporters accounting for the largest volumes
of trade, has been to weight-average the rates for the selected
companies excluding zero and de minimis rates and rates based entirely
on facts available. Because the Department calculated zero and de
minimis rates, respectively, for the two mandatory respondents, the
Department assigned to the non-individually examined respondents in
this administrative review with no history of a calculated margin a
separate rate of 4.57 percent, \2\ as a reasonable method reflective of
the range of commercial behavior demonstrated by exporters of the
subject merchandise during a very recent period in time. See Final
Results, 73 FR at 52275 and Comment 6. For those respondents that were
not selected for individual examination and received a calculated rate
in a more recent or contemporaneous prior segment, we assigned that
calculated rate as the company's separate rate in this review. See id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ The 4.57 percent margin is the rate calculated for
cooperative separate rate respondents in the underlying
investigation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In Amanda Foods (Vietnam) Ltd., et. al v. United States Court No.
08-00301 Slip Op. 09-106 (CIT September 29, 2009) (``Amanda I''), the
Court remanded the separate rate assignment methodology to the
Department to either assign to Plaintiffs the weighted-average rate of
the mandatory respondents, or else provide justification, based on
substantial evidence on the record, for using another rate. See Amanda
I at 30. Consequently, in the Department's remand redetermination for
Amanda I, we further explained the reasonableness of the methodology
applied in the Final Results.
    In Amanda Foods (Vietnam) Ltd., et al., v. United States, Consol.
Court No. 08-00301 (June 17, 2010) (``Amanda II''), the Court disagreed
with the Department's further justification for applying its separate
rate methodology, and remanded the issue back to the Department a
second time. On remand, the Court ordered the Department to employ a
reasonable method {to assign a separate rate{time} , which may ``
`include{e{time}  averaging the estimated weighted average dumping
margins determined for the exporters and producers individually
investigated,' 19 U.S.C. 1673d(c)(5)(B) and* * *assign to Plaintiffs
dumping margins for the second POR which are reasonable considering the
evidence on the record as a whole; to do so, Commerce may reopen the
evidentiary record if need be.'' See Amanda II remand opinion and order
at 26.
    In our Amanda II remand redetermination, under respectful protest,
the Department determined that, in this instance, it was necessary to
reopen the evidentiary record to gather additional information,
specific to each of the 23 Plaintiffs, in order to comply with the
Court's order. As detailed within footnote 22 of Amanda II, we reopened
the record to gather the quantity and value of Plaintiffs' sales to the
United States during the period of review (``POR'') on a count-size
specific basis to analyze the data to determine whether a reasonable
separate rate assignment methodology is supported by the supplemented
evidentiary record. See Amanda II at footnote 22. The 23 Plaintiffs
provided the necessary data which the Department evaluated to determine
whether there was evidence of dumping by the 23 Plaintiffs on the
record. See Amanda II remand redetermination at 5.
    After having conducted our analysis, the Department determined that
the record, with the additional count-size specific quantity and value
data, did not show evidence of dumping by the 23 Plaintiffs during this
POR. Id., at 5-6. Thus, because the Department has not found any
evidence of dumping by Plaintiffs during this POR based on the
information currently on the record, we determined to assign, under
protest, a separate rate to these 23 Plaintiffs equal to the simple
average of the dumping margins calculated for the individually-examined
companies.\3\ Id., at 6-7.

Timken Notice

    In its decision in Timken, 893 F.2d at 341, as clarified by Diamond
Sawblades, the CAFC has held that, pursuant to section 516A(e) of the
Act, the Department must publish a notice of a court decision that is
not ``in harmony'' with a Department determination and must suspend
liquidation of entries pending a ``conclusive'' court decision. The
CIT's April 14, 2011 judgment sustaining the Department's remand
redetermination constitutes a final decision of that court that is not
in harmony with the Department's Final Results. This notice is
published in fulfillment of the publication requirements of Timken.
Accordingly, the Department will continue the suspension of liquidation
of the subject merchandise pending the expiration of the period of
appeal or, if appealed, pending a final and conclusive court decision.
The cash deposit rate will remain the company-specific rate established
for the subsequent and most recent period during which the respondents
were reviewed.

Amended Final Results

    Because there is now a final court decision with respect to the 23
Plaintiffs named above, revised dumping margins are as follows:

Poultry Processor Gets 20% More Shelf Life Using CO2 Fresh-Pads Food Safety and Preservation Technology Products
Proven CO2 Generating Fresh-Pads Used in Meat and Produce Industries Have Now Been Tested and Implemented in Large Production Poultry Processing Plants in Colorado and Arizona, Providing a Low Cost Solution for Extending Shelf Life.

Denver, Colorado (PRWEB) May 29, 2011

JS Food Brokers LLC, offers CO2 Fresh-Pads to meat, poultry, seafood and produce processors to extend the shelf life of perishable food products. As master broker and marketing arm for CO2 Fresh-Pads patent holder CO2 Technologies Inc., JSFB has signed on several large poultry processors to test the CO2 pads in a production environment, the goal being to gain additional shelf life without using expensive equipment, chemicals or any process that directly alters the food itself.

“While top food industry economists are saying, ‘It’s going to be a tough year,’ for consumers, livestock producers are getting slammed with higher feed prices. One of our biggest selling points right now is the positive return on investment meat and poultry processors are getting because of the additional shelf life and the ability to offer a higher quality product.” – Steve Josephs, CEO, JS Food Brokers LLC

Shamrock Foods, in Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico, offers one of the top premium brands of fresh 100% natural chicken. With an extended shelf life beyond what is standard for commodity chicken, Shamrock is setting the standard for all “natural” poultry in the foodservice industry.

“Our new ‘Regal Crest Farms’ 100% all natural chicken requires the highest standard of quality for taste, flavor and tenderness. Using the CO2 Fresh-Pads helps our Regal Crest brand maintain that high standard for longer shelf life with less shrink, to meet our customers demand for excellence.” – Mike Brown, Manufacturing Division Consultant, Shamrock Foods

Fresh-Pads use a unique CO2 generating technology incorporated in a physical pad that modifies the atmosphere surrounding perishable food for an extended period of time. The results include less purge, longer shelf life, and improved texture, color and smell, thereby improving the marketability of the food.

CO2 Fresh-Pads gradually generate carbon dioxide, a natural atmospheric gas, in a controlled manner to retard bacteria growth from 20%-50% on perishable foods, significantly reducing purge and spoilage to provide safer fresher food. With the government’s new Food Safety requirements for food processors, the addition of a product that’s proven to reduce bacteria growth in fresh meat, poultry and seafood can be a real benefit.

In contrast to other food preservation technologies, CO2 pads provide an all-natural solution without resorting to the use of expensive equipment, chemicals, preservatives or high heat processes that can affect the integrity of the product or add substances that today’s consumers find undesirable.

For a free trial program or more information about CO2 Fresh-Pads or to contact JS Food Brokers LLC, please call 720-475-0330 or email info(at)jsfoodbrokers(dot)com or visit http://www.CO2Pads.com.

Chef Thomas Dritsas has been appointed to the position of Vice President, Corporate Executive Chef, overseeing the day-to-day culinary operations for all Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouses and Sullivan’s Steakhouses. Bill Martens has been named Vice President, Development & Construction, supervising all aspects of new store development and asset management for Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouses and Sullivan’s Steakhouses.

Mednansky, CEO of Del Frisco’s Restaurant Group. “He continues to impress us and our guests around the country with his talent and creativity and we are very pleased to announce this well-deserved promotion.”

Chef Dritsas, who graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in 1993 with an AOS degree in Culinary Arts, joined Sullivan’s Steakhouse in 1999, where he served as Executive Chef of the Raleigh location. It was not long before the company recognized his talent and hard work, and began utilizing his unique skill set in various projects across the country, including overseeing all new store openings. Since October of 2003, Chef Dritsas has served as corporate executive chef for the Del Frisco’s Restaurant Group, overseeing the day-to-day culinary operations for all Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouses and Sullivan’s Steakhouses.

His management responsibilities include market planning, site acquisition, construction, property management and lease administration. Martens’ contributions are well illustrated by the most recent Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouse, Del Frisco’s Boston, which debuted in April 2011. Del Frisco’s Boston opened with much success at the new Liberty Wharf project, steps away from the Seaport World Trade Center, boasting 13,000 square feet of magnificent harbor and downtown views.

“Bill was instrumental in managing the site acquisition for the beautiful new Del Frisco’s Boston,” noted Del Frisco’s CEO Mednansky. “The care he took in finding the perfect waterfront location and then maximizing the impact of the incredible views from that location are just two of the many impressive examples of why he is such a valued asset of our company, and so deserving of this promotion.”

Prior to joining Del Frisco’s Restaurant Group, Martens served as vice president, portfolio management for Lone Star Funds/Hudson Advisors, LLC, where he managed concept development, real estate, construction, and franchising for the restaurant company.

ORLANDO, Fla., April 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Red Lobster has announced a plan to redesign all of its Tampa Bay-area locations in a style reminiscent of the seaside village of Bar Harbor, Maine. Along with a fresh, updated look Red Lobster recently introduced new lunch and dinner menu items, inspired by regional flavors throughout America, that range in price from $8.99 to $18.50. The updated setting and new entrees offer Tampa Bay-area guests the chance to experience fresh, delicious, affordable seafood in a welcoming environment.

Fourteen Tampa Bay-area locations have been remodeled or newly constructed in the Bar Harbor design, including locations in Tampa, Lakeland, St. Petersburg, Sarasota, Bradenton, Sebring, Winter Haven, Brandon, Largo, Spring Hill, Port Richey and Clearwater.

The new Bar Harbor design was developed by an internal team of architects and designers, and was selected after a rigorous, multi-year process that included guest focus groups, qualitative surveys and market testing.

General Information: In March 2011, FAS Russia Agricultural Specialist attended the International Boston Seafood Show (IBSS) with about 20 Russian fish and seafood importers and distributors. The main objective was to acquaint Russian business representatives with the quality and range of fish and seafood products available from the United States and to support and assist Russian companies during the International Boston Seafood Show so that they could develop firm partnerships with potential U.S. suppliers. The Office of Agricultural Affairs (OAA) in Moscow sent the Senior Agricultural Assistant, who is our expert in the fisheries sector, with the delegation who walked the team through the show, helping Russian delegates find exhibitors selling their targeted products, and facilitating communication between the two sides. The OAA specialist also helped delegates arrange meetings with the American exporters. The Russian importers were particularly interested in frozen salmon roe, frozen hake, black cod, lobster, scallops, mussels and oysters. The USA Fish and Shellfish Buyers Mission 2011 was organized and coordinated by Food Export USA – Northeast, a Cooperator organization partially funded by USDA. Buyers’ Missions afford U.S. suppliers the opportunity to meet one-on-one with pre-qualified international buyers interested in their products to generate export sales. One of the leading Russian fish and seafood importers “Aquaculture LLC,” was sponsored by the U.S. Food Export Council under the Buyers’ Mission Program. Aquaculture LLC’s representative was invited to participate in the 2011 Buyers Mission Program consisting of pre-scheduled matchmaker meetings. On March 19, 2011, he participated in one-on-one matchmaking meetings with U.S. seafood suppliers. Other participants included international seafood buyers from France, China, Korea and Thailand. “Aquaculture LLC“ is the largest Russian importer of fresh lobster and scallops. The American company, East Coast Seafood, has granted “Aquaculture LLC.” the exclusive right to distribute their products in Russia. The participant also was looking to expand his sales in Russia with live lobster, frozen scallops, live mussels, fresh scallops, fresh monkfish, fresh skate, and was looking for U.S. suppliers of oysters. According to the Russian importer, his company currently purchases about $3 million worth of high value seafood from the United States. The importer was interested in purchasing trial shipments of oysters for $200,000. “Aquaculture LLC’s” total imports of seafood from the U.S. may reach $4 million by the end of CY 2011. In addition, Russian buyers of salmon and salmon roe were able to make preliminary arrangements to negotiate the purchase of 800 MT of salmon roe from Alaska and Washington states. The Russian buyers also mentioned that the show was extremely interesting in terms of examining how existing trends in the U.S. seafood market could be applied to the market in Russia. Projected sales of frozen salmon roe total $5 million. For the period January –December 2010, total fish and seafood exports from the United States hit a record $51.6 million, an 88 percent increase over 2009. Exports of frozen roe and livers in 2010 demonstrated remarkable growth and at an estimated $21.5 million represent almost a 500 percent increase over 2009. The rapid increase is attributed to poor domestic catch of salmon and strong demand for salmon roe and salmon in general. The largest increases were in live crustaceans and mollusks, with the import value increasing from $1.4 million in 2009 to over 4.4 million in 2010. According to Rosstat, retail prices for fish and seafood in Russia increased 4.8% in 2010. The outlook for 2011-2012 suggests
higher demand for fish and an increase in per capita consumption, both in lower-priced segments such as herring, hake, and perch, and in more expensive fish and processed products. Higher imports of chilled fish and ready to eat products are due to changes in eating habits, increased consumer demand, and economic recovery. Current annual per capita fish and seafood consumption is estimated at 15 kilograms. By attending the show, Russian seafood importers also had the opportunity to view the breadth and scope of seafood products preferred by American consumers and to check on new product lines. Though some fish and seafood products, such as monkfish, dogfish scallops and lobsters are relatively new to the Russian market. Aleksandr Ivanov, who represented the Russian National Restaurant Association, stated that these products may have good potential on the Russian market. During the meeting with Colleen Coyne, Seafood Program Manager of the U.S. North East Export Council, Mr. Ivanov highlighted the importance of choosing the right marketing strategy for new products, such as conducting chef seminars or degustation (tasting) and some education programs about how to deal with the new product. He also would like to offer the National Restaurant Association (NRA) premises in Russia for seminars for chefs and tastings, if the Northeast Council agrees to send professionals to Russia. He also mentioned that a chef presentation during the PIR show (Hospitality Industry Show) scheduled for September 27-30, 2011 would be an excellent venue to promote higher priced U.S fish and seafood. A number of U.S. suppliers expressed their interest in expanding their sales to the Russian market. Several opportunities for promotional activities in Russia, including an event at the U.S. Ambassador’s residence, and chef demonstration during PIR exhibition were discussed. As a result, it may bring in an additional $4-6 million in sales of U.S seafood. The U.S supplier is looking into an opportunity to promote its products at the Ambassador’s residence likely with a combination of other U.S. products, such as wine.

FDA requests seizure of adulterated breaded seafood at Wisconsin firms
Sun Prairie operation allegedly fails to have required hazard reduction plan

Yesterday, at the request of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, U.S. Marshals seized breaded seafood products that have been repacked by Fellerson, Inc., a firm that does business as K&S Wholesale Meats, for Soderholm Wholesale Foods, both of Sun Prairie, Wis., because the products are adulterated.

K&S Wholesale Meats allegedly repacked breaded seafood, including shrimp, haddock fillets, pollock fillets, and ocean perch fillets, under Soderholm’s “Seaside” label without having a Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) plan in place, in violation of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. The complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin.

HACCP is a science-based system of preventive controls for food safety that commercial seafood processors develop to identify potential food safety hazards and steps to keep them from occurring. The FDA Seafood HACCP program was designed to increase the margin of safety for U.S. consumers and to reduce those illnesses that do occur to the lowest possible levels.

“K&S Wholesale Meats has repeatedly ignored FDA warnings to conduct a hazard analysis and implement a written HACCP plan, in order to prevent adulteration of their breaded seafood,” said Dara A. Corrigan, the FDA’s associate commissioner for regulatory affairs. “By taking this action, the FDA is demonstrating its commitment to protecting the public health from the dangers of adulterated food products.”

The FDA issued a Warning Letter to K&S Wholesale Meats on Jan. 13, 2010, for not having a HACCP plan in place for their breaded seafood products. They responded to the Warning Letter promising corrections. Subsequent inspections in September 2010 and March 2011 revealed that the firm continued to repackage breaded fish without a written HACCP plan.
