Introduction

The Canadian Agriculture and Food International (CAFI) Program is a key element of Canada's international strategy. It is designed to support Canada's agriculture and food industry by helping to build long-term international strategies that will help ensure the industry is well-positioned to succeed in key markets, and to respond to increasing consumer demands and global competition.

The CAFI Program matches industry funds dollar for dollar to support activities that enhance and promote Canada's reputation as the world leader in supplying safe, high-quality agriculture, agri-food, beverage, and seafood products that meet the changing demands of world markets.

In this way, the Canadian agriculture and food industry will enjoy improved access to global markets, and will strengthen its ability to increase international sales.
