Food and Beverage Industry Overview
In recent years, the rise in Chinese consumers’ disposable income is boosting China’s food and beverage (“F&B”) industry. There is a greater awareness of the importance of health and pushing F&B companies to use higher quality ingredients.
F&B branding is becoming innovative with companies relying more on digital marketing tools, establishing collaborations with companies from other industries, and launching peripheral products to promote brand uniqueness.
The Chinese F&B industry has a relatively high acceptance to foreign companies. Some foreign F&B organizations have developed a strong position in the Chinese market.
The F&B industry accounts for 11% of total retail sales in China. In this industry, snacks and fast food are taking the largest market share and hot pot is the most popular sales item. Consumers’ changing eating habits have a significant impact on the industry’s growth.
