In terms of a recent bilateral trade agreement, the U.K. is eligible to export poultry meat to Japan with the potential to generate $18 million in value annually.
Victoria Prentis, Minister for Food in the U.K. government stated, "the Japanese market will now be able to enjoy more of our unique produce adding to an already varied collection of U.K. food including pork, beef and lamb available to its customers". She added, "this is a significant opportunity for the U.K. poultry sector as we are working hard to open new markets for agri-food businesses".
