Description
UK food and drink companies exported £2 billion in products to the US in 2025. This vast and dynamic market presents significant opportunities, but success depends on a clear understanding of logistics, regulatory requirements, and routes to market.
Join this session to explore the opportunities available for UK food and drink exporters and gain practical insights into entering and scaling in the US. We will cover key subsectors, market entry considerations, and the regulatory landscape, helping you avoid common pitfalls and ensure full compliance.
This webinar is designed specifically for UK food and drink producers looking to expand into the US. While the opportunity is substantial, navigating US import requirements can be complex. The US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) strictly enforces regulations on imported food and beverages, making it essential for exporters to understand and meet all relevant requirements before entering the market.
Our expert-led session will guide you through the critical steps needed to identify, understand, and overcome regulatory barriers, helping you approach the US market with confidence.
