Ireland has secured full market access to China for salmon exports, ending four years of negotiations.
The announcement was made by Tanaiste and Foreign Affairs Minister Eamon Gilmore during the latest stage of his four day diplomatic and trade mission to the country.
Gilmore said the deal would give a further boost to Ireland's growing seafood exports.
“Last year was our most successful ever for food and drink exports, which is proof of the quality of product Ireland has to offer,” Gilmore said.
