A €3.8m fund has been received by Bord bia through the Department of Agriculture to promote Irish pork and poultry in China and Mexico. The aim is to implement a three-year campaign to strengthen awareness in Europe’s high-quality standards and increase pigmeat exports across both markets.
Pork exports will be promoted in both China and Mexico, while poultry will solely be focused on the Chinese market. The Department expect that the campaign could provide the basis for exports going from 15,000t to 25,800t. The campaign will be targeted across all levels of business.
