Hungarian meat to be exported to the Philippines

Hungarian companies have been cleared to export meat to the Philippines for the first time, Foreign Minister Péter Szijjartó said in a post on Facebook on Sunday.

The six companies were licenced for exports of pork, poultry and live animals after “long years of persistent work”, Szijjártó said.

He added that two more companies could be cleared to export after supplementary documentation is submitted.

With over 112 million inhabitants, the market in the Philippines offers “enormous opportunity” for the Hungarian food industry, he added.
