The Meat Board of Namibia has invited eligible organisations to apply for a share in the Norwegian quota available to Namibia for the production and export of beef to Norway.
The quota will be awarded to eligible organisations (organisations approved for beef production and export to Norway) and is valid for the period beginning 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2024.
“New entrants that meet requirements are encouraged to apply,” the Meat said.
The sharing and allocation of the 1 600 tons of beef quota will be done in accordance with the principles outlined in the ‘Cabinet Directive’ for the export of beef to Norway, Norway Quota Standard Operating Procedures as well as the Meat Board Norwegian Quota Award Model.
“Applicants are required to attach documents/ information including a covering letter motivating for the award of the quota and stipulating the total tonnage applied for the calendar year 2024; statutory documents proving incorporation of legal entity; historic slaughter numbers and beef export volumes indicating demonstrated capacity to export the beef tonnage applied for; proof of compliance with corporate statutory requirements including clearance of Meat Board levies as at date of application and existing beneficiaries of the quota must ensure that a full disclosure of consignments (with MBN permit numbers) undertaken and cleared in 2023 is attached to the application,” the Board said adding that written applications, clearly marked “Norwegian Quota” should reach the Meat Board on or before 2 October 2023.
