The United Kingdom is seeking to re-establish itself as a major poultry supplier to the Philippines following the lifting of a three-year import ban due to avian influenza concerns. British Ambassador Laure Beaufils expressed confidence that UK poultry will regain its previous position as a top export to the Philippines.

The United Kingdom aims to reclaim its status as one of the Philippines’s top suppliers of poultry products following Manila’s decision to lift a 3-year ban it imposed on British poultry due to the highly pathogenic avian influenza.

“We’ve lost three years, sadly, so I think importers and traders have to get reacquainted with the UK market, with UK suppliers, and recognize the opportunity that is presented to them. Once they do, I think the sky’s the limit because they’ll be importing large quantities .” Beaufils said the regionalization agreement with the Philippines showed that the DA and the UK’s Department for Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs have forged a “strong relationship based on trust but also on science and data.”
