Breeding Stock Exports

Export Promotion
BPA organises a range of export promotion activities to support our members own breeding stock export programmes. Funding comes from UK Trade & Investment through the Tradeshow Access Programme (TAP). Grants of up to £1800 per company are limited and will be allocated on a first come first served basis. Companies are entitled to 6 grants in total starting from April 1st 2009. Any previous grants will not be counted against this total. You may visit a market or event more than once but you must visit at least two different markets during the lifetime of the scheme.

Overseas Exhibitions
The BPA will be sponsoring the following Trade Fairs during the 2010 - 2011 programme.  To be eligible for grant you must be part of the official group and book through the BPA using our booking forms. Booking direct with the show organisers may result in your grant application being refused. Click on the event for more details. When an event is available for booking the link below will become live. If the link is disabled it means that booking forms are not yet available.
