Cheese map

The export of British cheeses is being promoted by a cheese map featuring 60 cheeses chosen from more than 400 produced in the UK. The MAFF funded poster has been produced in French, Spanish, Italian and German as well as in English. It will be used in a variety of promotional activities both by the industry and British embassies in target export markets. The UK cheese production has increased by 22 per cent since 1991 and in 1998 the UK produced 377,000 tonnes of cheese. Between January and October 1998, cheese exports were nearly 45,000 tonnes, an increase of 13 per cent compared with the same period in 1997. Copies of the poster can be obtained from MAFF.
