Bord Bia's social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter, You Tube, Linked In etc.) were created for the purpose of allowing our clients, followers and other interested parties to network and engage in discussions on topics relevant to the Irish food, drink and horticulture industries. The platforms were not created to allow companies to advertise products or services for commercial gain. Individuals may post discussions on events, job opportunities or products within the framework of generating discussion on the forum; however frequent off-topic posts, or posts that are designed to generate commercial gain rather than discussion, will be deleted at the direction of Bord Bia’s Social Media platform administrators. We appreciate your co-operation.
