ABP Food Group has secured a three year €50m supply agreement with Asian restaurant chain Wowprime Corporation to supply beef to its restaurants in China.
The deal is contingent on Irish beef gaining access to the Chinese market.
Wowprime is a publically listed company and has over 400 restaurants in China and Taiwan.
The deal extends to ABP's joint venture partners Slaney Foods and the companies have also agreed to extend the arrangement to include ABP's UK operations, in the event of the UK gaining market access to China.
Mark Goodman, Managing Director of ABP’s International Division said the deal is a tangible endorsement of the quality beef that ABP has to offer.
"It is another significant step in developing new market opportunities for our products against the uncertain backdrop of Brexit," he added.
