New market for UK pork
British farmers and food producers are set to benefit from a new market, as Taiwan prepares to welcome UK pork exports for the first time. UK pork exports were worth £290m to the economy last year, reaching over 80 export markets. This new agreement is expected to be worth more than £50m over the next five years, according to a Government spokesperson.
The deal will hopefully provide a valuable market for the fifth quarter, or offal cuts, which are not commonly purchased in the UK but are popular in other parts of the world such as China. The deal has been secured by the UK government, working with the Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB) and UK Export Certification Partnership (UKECP). Exporters can take advantage of the market as soon as the administrative listing process is completed and export certification is made available.
