Following a tour of two export facilities in Western Jamaica on Friday (February 7) Agriculture Minister, Roger Clarke said he was “very pleased with the improvements by local exporters”.
Clarke noted that the programme was achieving its objectives, with 11 operations already benefitting from the assistance and 20 expected during the course of the year.
“Our commitment is to do whatever we can to make sure that we achieve the food safety standards necessary not only for exports, but to make our people aware of what food safety means, and we are well on our way. I think we have some very cooperative people working with and I think we will achieve what we have set out to achieve,” Clarke said.
