In 2017 China’s food market experienced many changes. According to a report released by the Boston Consulting Group and AliResearch , the upper-middle-class, affluent families and younger generations in China emerged to become the main consumer group and shaped food trends through their demand for quality, safe, and convenient products, and influenced marketing with their growing interest in food brands and original labeling. Now in its nineteenth year, SIAL China 2018 will continue to connect the Asian and international food industry, promote innovation and collaboration to meet new and changing consumer demand.
