Up to one-fifth of US beef and pork capacity may be shut down after the ransomware attack on JBS, the world's largest meat processing company

The Brazil-based meatpacker's US operations are headquartered in Greeley, Colorado, and control an estimated one-fifth of the country's slaughtering capacity for beef and pork. The company employs more than 64,000 workers in the US, many of whom are reporting cancelled shifts during the stoppage.

"Resolution of the incident will take time, which may delay certain transactions with customers and suppliers," the statement said.
