All 15 Canadian meat packing and processing plants checked out by Ukrainian officials in September have passed inspection.
Federal government officials say those 15 will now be added to the establishments who can send exports of beef and pork to Ukraine.
That brings the total number of Canadian plants able to sell to the Ukraine to 27.
Meanwhile, Canadian and Ukraine officials are doing a legal review of the text of the Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement negotiated this past summer.
That agreement would include the elimination of the vast majority of Ukraine's agricultural tariffs, including on Canadian beef, certain pork, pulses and grains.
The industry estimates access to the Ukrainian market for Canadian beef and pork is worth up to 50 million dollars a year.
