The Department of International Trade’s (DIT) officials and I maintain close contact with the food and drink industry; and agriculture.

The ministerial team have had a variety of very productive meetings with a range of industry representatives.

In carrying out our engagement with the industry we cooperate closely with Defra and other government departments.
