A small Oregon company has shipped an entire food-processing plant to China. Some assembly is required.

Tech-Mark Inc. President Gildo Martini said his company made a $1.2-million dollar deal to sell a ready-to-operate, 7,400-square-foot meat-processing plant to a buyer in China. He refused to release the name of the buyer.

Tech-Mark’s manufacturing division will provide the cooking ovens, food dryers, steam cabinets and smokehouses.

Other U.S. manufacturers, working with Tech-Mark, will provide additional processing equipment.

Martini said he sees a wide-open market, at least now, for this kind of business opportunity in less technologically advanced nations.

“This is a growing market that will keep blossoming for years,” he said. “There is a tremendous need for our equipment in developing countries.”
