China Food Manufacturing Sector Report 2016 3rd Quarter

Food manufacturing is one of the most important sectors of China’s economy, as it provides sustenance to almost 20% of the world’s population. The industry also provides an impetus for the development of related sectors such as agriculture, transportation, machinery and vehicle manufacturing, and retail. The food sector’s profit had been growing at a double-digit rate until recently; however, the 2014-2015 economic slowdown resulted in a slower growth pace for the sector, which has continued so far in 2016. Moreover, the industry has been hit by food safety scandals, a problem that has been haunting the sector for quite a while now. The industry is under pressure to modernise and to guarantee better accountability of food origin. The government has responded by issuing new laws on food safety with more severe penalties, but it remains to be seen how they will be implemented.
