The HACCP certified that meat products of Makh Market, a meat company of Just Agro LLC, are products of an international standard.
The HACCP standard was first developed and used in 1970 by the US for food supply of astronauts; later becoming a worldwide recognized the food safety standard in the mid 1980s.
The Mongolia National Food Safety Program aims to have no less than 60 percent of Mongolian food products pass the HACCP food standards test by 2016. Just Agro LLC, has been congratulated for being years ahead of schedule.

The ceremony opened with a melody from a Morin Khuur, and proceeded with company executives delivering speeches. Afterwards, head of the Mongolian Meat Association, L. Gankhuu awarded the CEO of Just Agro, T. Sodnomdarjaa, the HAACP certificate.
“This is only the beginning,” began CEO T. Sodnomdarjaa. “We have worked for 2 whole years on research and study to have Mongolian meat pass international safety and quality standards. We have spent 50 billion MNT to upgrade our technologies, and purchased 61 billion MNT worth of meat from herders, which we believe was an exceptional assistance for the herding families. We have spent 1 billion MNT to train our employees to work at world standards.”
State Great Khural D. Baldan-Ochir said, “Members of the State Great Khural are expressing their gratefulness to the leading meat producer Makh Market for becoming the first meat producing company to receive the certificate of HACCP.”
“Just Agro has worked to improve its meat market since 2002, and now they have 11 large meat processing and preparing plants in Mongolia, with exports to United Arab Emirates, Russia, China, Korea and Iran.
After the ceremony, we went to be introduced to the meat processing plants. Receivers from the company were waiting for us at the entrance and they provided us with special suits and equipment before entering the building.”
“The receivers were not there because of arriving Government officials, they are always there for anyone who enters the plant, to make sure it is free of infection and to keep an excellent level of hygiene. We saw meat packers in large, clean glass walled rooms. The meat was thoroughly cleaned and disinfected to high standards.”
“After watching the operations at the plant, I felt it was undoubtably safe to continue using their meat products.”
