ABP to support SME exporters
The Irish Exporters Association (IEA) is partnering with ABP Food Group and a number of other leading companies, in collaboration with the Department of Foreign Affairs & Trade, Enterprise Ireland and Bord Bia, to launch a new initiative for aspiring exporters from the SME sector.
The initiative includes the National Export Campaign (NEC) and National Export Hub (NEH), which are both aimed at helping smaller businesses export to new and existing markets.
“Exporting is a critical sector in the Irish economy with headline figures dominated by the multinationals,” Simon McKeever, chief executive of the Irish Exporters Association said.
Also commenting on the partnership, Mark Goodman, international director of ABP Food Group, said: “As the leading exporter of Irish beef with experience in a wide range of markets we are delighted to be involved with this innovative initiative. We are really looking forward to the roadshow and in sharing our international experience and supporting potential exporters from the SME sector.”
