Schneider’s Market in Kirkwood has added imported Brazilian beef alongside local meat after higher U.S. prices pushed shoppers toward cheaper options.
USDA data showed beef and veal prices in June 2026 were up 11.8% from a year earlier, driving the store to bring in the lower-priced product gradually.
Brazilian beef has gained steady demand from both families and a few restaurants that now buy it weekly, prompting the market to keep it in regular stock.
USDA forecasts suggest the pressure will persist, with overall beef and veal prices projected to rise another 10.7% over the course of 2026.
