Afternoon bacon 🥓🇬🇧

🍵 Could that be a new tradition in the Old Continent? According to the UK’s Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB), the trade between the UK and the EU is as vital as the afternoon tea! The UK is a significant contributor to the EU market, and increases in imports were seen across all pig meat products.  

    •  EU imports of fresh and frozen pig meat from the UK for September totalled 14,100 tonnes (an increase of 8.9% compared with the previous month and of 7.5% compared with the same period last year) – in the year-to-date, the UK has accounted for 81.2% of the EU market share. 

     •  Bacon saw the largest percentage growth on a year-to-date basis, up by 44.2%.
