I don't know if this is the biggest inhibitor, but we've started looking at some fruit and vegetable regulations, such as packaging sizes and quality standards, that can differ across the country. We have found it's a big world out there, and food processors and horticultural producers need first to be able to start off domestically, regionally really, with local food. To go from there to international export is a huge leap. To get them to be able to export outside the region into other provinces, neighbouring provinces and so on, is probably an important step to moving toward becoming an exporter. Farmers and food processors typically want to grow. So it's looking at the horticulture regulations, and fruit and vegetable regulations are a starting point.
