Market Access

Market access covers new or improved entry for horticulture products (fresh fruit, vegetables, nuts, cut-flowers and nursery production) into markets where terms and conditions of access need to be negotiated on an inter-governmental basis with those authorities responsible for the control of import, health and safety regimes.

This broad definition of market access covers phytosanitary (quarantine), sanitary (contaminants eg pesticides) and non-quarantine (eg exclusion, duties, quotas, tariffs, licences) requirements that need to be addressed through the established channels for authorising or improving access.
