Recently, we hosted our US export 101 for food & beverage brands webinar.

Our speakers, Jane McKay (Astute Ideas) and Catherine Stephens (Business West), shared practical insights for food and drink brands considering entry into the US market.

The discussion covered:

  • Why export to the US? From growth opportunities and risk diversification to brand credibility and extending product lifecycles.
  • Export readiness. Financial considerations, operational capacity, and product-market fit, alongside legal and compliance requirements.
  • Real-life experience. The success story of Caleño Drinks, including their market selection strategy, compliance journey, and lessons learned.

It was a valuable session for any UK brand looking across the Atlantic. If you missed it, keep an eye out for our upcoming events. We’ll be continuing to support businesses in the food and drink sector with practical guidance on international growth.
