FoodEx offers a key opportunity to expand and build on the reputation of Welsh Lamb and Welsh Beef and connect with new customers across the region. HCC has been working relentlessly on behalf of levy payers and the industry to develop opportunities for Wales premium Welsh red meat brands, which earlier this year enjoyed a new launch into the high end Food Service sector across Japan.

HCC’s Head of Strategic Marketing and Connections Laura Pickup, who is joining the delegation, explains why this event is one not to be missed: "By attending FoodEx we are building on the excellent work that has already taken place and which secured a top spot for Welsh Lamb on gourmet menus in this important new market.

"We are excited to continue telling the excellent story of this premium product, which is underpinned by heritage and sustainable production methods that we know are world leading and attending trade shows like this one on behalf of the industry forms a crucial element in our promotion and market development work".
