Thank you, Australia! ๐บ๐ธ๐ฆ๐บ
Our U.S. delegation, comprised of 60 businesses, 11 state departments of agriculture, and 15 ag cooperators, started strong! Together we:
๐บ๐ธ Opened the USA Pavilion at Fine Food Australia โ where we are honored to serve as the show's first-ever Country Partner, giving 39 U.S. companies a platform to showcase high-quality American ag products.
๐ค Connected U.S. businesses to Australian and New Zealand importers and showcased 75 market-opening conversations on day one alone.
๐ฝ Met with Australian biofuel leaders to expand export opportunities for U.S. ag and support Australiaโs growing biofuels sector.
๐ Hosted Australian buyers and partners for a USDA tailgate ahead of the NFLโs first-ever game in Australia โ featuring American dairy, pork, wine, spirits, and hops.
Iโm headed home, but the mission continues โ strengthening cooperation, expanding market access, and creating long-term wins for U.S. agriculture across the Pacific. ๐บ๐ธ๐
