Gov. C.L. "Butch" Otter's second trade mission as chief executive resulted in contracts for two Idaho companies, including a Twin Falls-based beef distributor, to do business in China.

Independent Meat Co. received orders for six containers of pork - 53,000 pounds per container - valued at more than $300,000, to immediately benefit from Otter's two trade mission. In May, after at trip to Cuba, the company netted a deal worth $100,000 to ship boneless pork legs.
