Thank you for contacting me about promoting British produce in the UK.
I recognise the crucial role our farmers play in supporting food security, driving economic growth, and helping us achieve our net zero goals. I know that the Government is proud to celebrate our British farmers and growers who work to produce world-renowned, high-quality produce all year round. Ministers are working to raise awareness of the UK’s reputation for high-quality food and drink produced to high standards of food safety, animal welfare, and sustainability. The Government’s Food Strategy promotes more locally sourced food and commits to maintaining the current level of food we produce domestically and increasing production in sectors with the biggest opportunities, such as horticulture and seafood.
