<100 cellulose Market Opportunities
Mirroring a trend being seen throughout the Asian region, many of the world’s largest suppliers of
food ingredients have begun to establish sales networks and research and technical support facilities in China. Being geographically close to their customers, as well as employing local sales and technical staff who understand the requirements of the Chinese food industry, will give such firms a competitive advantage over suppliers based outside China. They have recognised that the food market in China is overwhelmingly Chinese-style and that they will therefore require staff with an intimate knowledge of Chinese-style food.
Trade figures indicate that Australia’s strength as a supplier of food ingredients to the Chinese market lies primarily with raw ingredients, including sugar and wheat. However in terms of more processed food ingredients, market growth is expected for the following products (although increased demand for some of them will be met mostly through domestic production in China):
yeast enzymes starch
powdered milk (both full-cream and skim
milk powder) whey powder casein
