According to 'The 2023-2029 China Bird's Nest Industry Market Assessment and Investment Prospect Evaluation Report', the domestic bird's nest market has shown growth for nine consecutive years. By 2022, the scale of China's bird's nest industry reached 43 billion yuan. Even though there are price fluctuations in the bird's nest market, overall, the market size maintains steady growth, demonstrating strong market potential.   Compared to traditional dried bird's nest, novel forms of bird's nest products such as ready-to-eat bird's nests, fresh stewed bird's nest, and fresh soaked bird's nest not only satisfy consumers' demand for safety and convenience, but also inject new vitality into the bird's nest market. The market overall shows a dual growth pattern of supply and demand.   Under continuous strengthening of regulation in import, production, processing, and marketing, the overall market has moved towards a path of healthy and standardized development. This not only safeguards consumers' rights but also lays the foundation for long-term development of the bird's nest market. More detailed market segmentation, strict quality standards, and innovative processing methods have all contributed to the expansion of bird's nest product technology and market. Although industry competition is intensifying, emerging bird's nest e-commerce platforms and cross-border trade still provide new development opportunities for the industry.   Contact Us: [email protected] Exhibitor Pre-Registration: https://lnkd.in/gGCbmB3m #Food2ChinaExpo #中食展 #WinetoChinaExpo #GIFIF #CCDC #CCPITGZ #CCOICGZ #GDIFA #Constellar-WorldEx #ShanghaiHehe #GuangzhouJiangnanFruit&VegetableWholesable Co.,Ltd. #GuangzhouInternationalFisheries&SeafoodExpo #China Food Safety Newspaper

Wine Map of Ukraine June 2024 What are the predominant wine-growing regions in Ukraine? Where are they located? How many registered wineries are there in Ukraine and what are the dominant grape varieties for red and white wine? The project "Promotion of Ukrainian Wine Sector on EU Market" dealt with these questions, among others, and developed the Wine Map of Ukraine as part of its project activities. This map highlights the main wine production areas in the country. Due to climatic changes, the northern regions of Ukraine are becoming more attractive for viticulture. The growing capabilities of wine production are also reflected in the expanding community of craft winemakers in Ukraine. Wine Map of Ukraine was developed by the consortium of Eco Viva GmbH (main partner) and IAK Agrar Consulting GmbH within the international cooperation program “EU4Business: SME Recovery, Competitiveness and Internationalisation” (EU4Business: відновлення, конкурентоспроможність та інтернаціоналізація МСП | Facebook) that is co-financed by the European Union and the German Government and is implemented by the German federal company “Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH” (GIZ Ukraine | Kyiv | Facebook). The programme aims to support Ukraine’s economic resilience, recovery and growth, create better conditions for the development of Ukrainian small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as well as support innovation and exports.
