FFB will host a “How to Export” seminar at its London offices on January 27.

The seminar will also mark the launch of its new “Guide to Exporting” for regional food and drinks producers. The guide is aimed at small and medium sized businesses producing quality regional products, to help them capitalise on international opportunities. It can be downloaded from www.foodfrombritain.com from January 27.

FFB chairman Gordon Summerfield and some of FFB's key export specialists will outline how to increase sales internationally.

Jane Wakeling, regional food and drink manager at FFB, said: “We are committed to promoting British regional food and drink. However, gaining international business can be complex, so we have published this guide to help British regional food and drink companies develop a route map.”
