About Panama Poultry Export Quota Inc C/O Dtb Associates Llp
Panama Poultry Export Quota Inc C/o Dtb Associates LLP channels tariff-rate quota proceeds into poultry-industry projects tied to market development, trade issues resolution, and capacity building. Its recent grants show a consistent relationship with the USA Poultry & Egg Export Council in Stone Mountain, Georgia, including a 2023 award of $410,000 and a 2024 award of $250,000. Both awards support work that combines export promotion with trade policy support, including promotional materials, trade advisors, and market-access efforts. The foundation’s structure is unusual compared with a conventional charitable grantmaker: it administers proceeds from open tender sales of chicken leg quarters quotas granted by the Republic of Panama to the United States under the United States-Panama Trade Promotion Agreement. Those proceeds are then distributed to poultry industry associations in Panama and the United States for market development, educational, scientific, technical, and capacity-building projects. The foundation’s giving therefore sits at the intersection of agriculture, international trade, and industry coordination, with grants designed to support both commercial market access and the systems used to sustain it. Leadership is listed under Violeta Gutierrez-Mccormi.
