International market development

Demand for B.C. agrifoods has never been stronger.  Global population growth, rising incomes, climate change and other factors are driving demand for agrifoods in countries around the world.  Markets in emerging economies such as China and India are growing quickly and rising incomes are increasing demand for higher-value products.

International market development strategy

British Columbia grows and harvests some of the world’s finest agrifood and seafood products. Clean air and water, bright sun, and good soil all combine, resulting in flavour rich, nutritious, safe and healthy food.  The B.C. agrifood and seafood sector is ideally positioned to respond to increasing product demand.

The International Market Development Strategy ensures expanding opportunities result from the best knowledge combined with the right investment, channeled through a robust network of support to bring more of B.C.’s natural wealth to the world.
