About Us
We are the UK’s fresh produce trade association.
Who we are
700
The current amount of businesses that are part of FPC
FPC is owned by its vast membership and we work exclusively for them. Our current membership stands at around 700 businesses which continues to grow year on year. Members include retailers, distributors, importers, wholesalers, processors, packers, food service and a large number of associated members including freight handling, ports, embassies, laboratories, business solutions, lawyers, packaging, recruitment and trade media.
We work on behalf of members and engage with legislators and regulators to advise on and influence current industry affairs including Brexit. Much of our work goes on behind the scenes but is highly effective in benefiting daily trading.
