The congress, hosted in Wales for the first time, provided a valuable platform to highlight the unique provenance and sustainability credentials of Welsh red meat.<\/p>\n<p>Visitors to our stand had the opportunity to sample dishes showcasing the distinct flavour and traceability of PGI Welsh Lamb and PGI Welsh Beef, as well as high-quality pork produced in Wales. Tastings emphasised the importance of geography, traditional farming practices, and strict production standards that underpin the Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) status.<\/p>\n<p>The Worldchefs Congress in Newport\u00a0 attracted delegates from over 100 countries, giving Welsh producers unprecedented exposure to decision-makers in the global food industry. For HCC, the event represents a significant step in growing awareness and international demand for Welsh meat and strengthening its position in high-end culinary markets.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-6578\" src=\"http:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0151-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0151-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0151-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0151-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0151-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0151-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\u00a0 <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-6580\" src=\"http:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0179-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0179-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0179-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0179-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0179-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0179-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0179-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/>\u00a0 <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-6576\" src=\"http:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0029-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0029-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0029-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0029-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0029-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/meatpromotion.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC0029-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hybu Cig Cymru \u2013 Meat Promotion Wales (HCC) recently exhibited at the Worldchefs Congress held in Newport, promoting the quality and heritage of PGI Welsh Lamb, PGI Welsh Beef, and Pork from Wales to a global audience of culinary professionals.
