To connect growers with industry ASWGA liaises with processor members in England, Scotland, Japan, Italy, China, Turkey, Egypt and Australia and consults with key retailers and bespoke tailors in Europe and Asia. Each year the President or a council representative visits overseas mill members and other appropriate entities, and then reports findings to grower members. An ASWGA representative also attends the IWTO conference each year and reports back on international trends and news.
