The US Dairy Export Council is seeking input on your firm’s level of interest in the Israel
dairy market, given ongoing U.S.-Israel trade discussions. Please respond to Shawna Morris (at smorris@usdec.org), if you wish to provide input.
The U.S. and Israel are engaged in discussions on the existing free trade agreement. Currently the trade agreement, provides tightly limited access for dairy products. USDEC has long
advocated expanding U.S. market access to that market.
USDEC is preparing detailed recommendations to provide to the U.S. government
as they embark on these renewed trade discussions with Israel and is looking for your updates to incorporate into their recommendations.
