Irish Beef Exports to Germany on the Rise
The Irish beef sector is highly export oriented and witnessing an increase in demand. Data from Board Bia highlights that Irish meat and livestock exports are to reach a value of over €4 billion in 2022.
HANNON Transport has witnessed a substantial increase in the volume of both Full Load (FTL) and Groupage (LTL) shipments of Irish bovine meat exports (Commodity Group 0201 “Meat of bovine animals, fresh or chilled”) destined for the German market. Furthermore, the UK Landbridge remains an optimal route for fresh produce in and out of Ireland to/from northern Europe.
