JBS SA is one of the world's largest beef and chicken producers and is the second-largest food packager behind Nestle SA. This food giant garners the bulk of its revenues from beef, and with high beef prices the bottom line looks strong. In addition, more than 80% of their sales take place in US dollars, which largely eliminates issues related to Brazilian currency devaluations and other BRIC-related problems. They also own 75% of Pilgrim's Pride (PPC) which has been a perennial favorite of our models lately.
