The role of Bord Bia, The Irish Food Board, is to act as a link between Irish food, drink and horticulture suppliers and existing and potential customers worldwide. Bord Bia was established in 1994 through the amalgamation of the Irish Meat and Livestock Board (Coras Beostoic agus Feola) and the food promotion activities of the Irish Trade Board. In 2004 it amalgamated with Bord Glas to incorporate the development of the horticulture industry and in 2009 Bord Bia took over the promotion of Irish seafood from BIM (Bord Iascaigh Mharaigh). Our mission statement is "to drive, through market insight, and, in partnership with industry, the commercial success of a world-class food, drink and horticulture industry". We have an extensive and in-depth knowledge of the Irish and global food industries, which we are happy to share. We can provide you with details of exports, production, quality standards, health regulations and controls, and new developments in the industry. We can also act as a bridge, putting you in touch with companies appropriate to your areas of interest.
