BFFF: Target Operating Model For the Future of Trade, a Positive Step to Stabilizing Post-Brexit Relations

The BFFF welcomes the publication of the government’s long-awaited 2025 UK Border Strategy, according to Rupert Ashby, chief executive of the British Frozen Food Federation. “Our team of technical experts are now working at pace to analyse the contents of the strategy to best advise our members about how the plan will affect the frozen food industry.”

“On the face of it, the Target Operating Model (TOM) for the future of trade will be a positive step to stabilising post-Brexit trade relations. The government’s ambition for a border which embraces innovation and simplifies processes for businesses is echoed by the frozen food industry, which is looking forward to capitalising on more efficient trade relationships,” he adds. “Following the Windsor Framework and the UK’s accession to the CPTPP, the TOM published today will hopefully provide more good news for the frozen industry. Frozen food has become an increasingly popular choice for consumers looking for high quality and affordable options in their weekly shop and I know that our members will seek to reach more international markets, making full use of the 2025 UK Border Strategy.”

BFFF is the leading trade association for the UK’s frozen food sector. Members cover the entire cold chain of supply. The Federation campaigns with its members to educate, promote and inform consumers, retailers, and the foodservice sector about the value of frozen food.
