The planned programme of Ministerial trade promotion visits underlines my commitment to supporting the Irish agri-food sector's ambition to develop, consolidate and diversify its footprint on international markets.
The visits planned to China, Vietnam, Thailand, UK and France highlight the diverse market opportunities which exist to promote the high quality and sustainable agri-food goods produced by Irish farmers, fishers and processors.
