General Information
With the improvement of my country's economic level and people's living standards, consumers' demand for food has gradually transitioned from simply satisfying food and clothing to pursuing safe, healthy, authentic and reliable high-quality products. Thanks to strict EU and national food safety standards, strong external supervision over the years, and multi-dimensional self-control measures, food safety in France has been recognized worldwide. In the "2019 Global Food Safety Index Report" released by the think tank of the British "Economist" magazine, the French food safety index ranked 16th among 113 countries and regions in the world.
According to statistics from China Customs, the bilateral trade volume between China and Europe reached US$682.2 billion in 2018, a year-on-year increase of 10.6%. Among them, China's imports to France amounted to US$32.22 billion, a year-on-year increase of 20.2%, ranking first among the 27 countries in the EU; food and beverages ranked fourth among the top five categories of products China imported to France. The above data shows that China has a strong demand for French food imports, and the prospects for bilateral food trade between China and France are promising. In addition, the "China-EU Geographical Indications Agreement" signed recently between China and the EU also provides a policy guarantee for strengthening the protection of China-EU Geographical Indications and promoting bilateral trade of Geographical Indication products.
In this context, the French National Food Industry Association (ANIA) actively launched a three-year (2019-2021) European food promotion plan in China under the auspices of the European Union. As an internationally influential organization, the French National Food Industry Association is not only committed to expanding the influence of French agri-food companies in China, but also hoping to spread the essence of French cuisine and culture in the process.
The European food and beverage industry is an indispensable part of the European socio-economic and cultural structure. It is known for its high quality, delicious, safe characteristics and continuous innovation, and it is in a leading position in the world's food and beverage industry. Starting today, people can taste a large number of high-quality food and drinks without going abroad, and reap the happiness brought by French products.
As a year of succession in the promotion plan, this year will continue to enrich the form of publicity, expand the scope of publicity, and innovate publicity methods, so as to make more Chinese consumers choose and trust French products.
To this end, a three-day European Food Exchange Expo 2020 will be held on December 14-16 this year. The exchange exhibition aims to promote the exchanges and cooperation between Chinese and French enterprises, and is launched by combining online live broadcast and online platform interaction.
On the day of the online exchange exhibition, Chinese experts from the food field will analyze the current development trend of the food industry in detail for the Chinese business representatives in the form of graphics + live broadcast and highlight the current situation of my country's food imports from Europe. After the live broadcast, Chinese business representatives can directly communicate with French business representatives who are interested in cooperating on this online platform to facilitate the establishment of contacts between the two countries' enterprises and the development of bilateral economic and trade cooperation.
Safety, health, reliability, and security are the advantages of this European food import. I hope that this online event can promote business exchanges and future trade cooperation between Chinese and French companies, so that more high-quality products from Europe can enter the Chinese consumer market, and to provide Chinese consumers with more safe and reliable French imported food , And then appeared on the table of Chinese consumers.
