Expo to facilitate growth in British food shipments

A strong showing by the very best in United Kingdom food is expected at the ongoing China's Global Food & Hospitality Trade Show, headed by good-old fashioned British fish and chips.

The UK has sent an 80-strong delegation to the 19th session of the event at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre China.

Elizabeth Truss, the UK's secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, outlined the UK's commitment to boosting food exports, and bringing more of the country's top quality food and drink to supermarkets across China.
