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.
From May 16 to May 18, 2018, at the Shanghai New International Expo Center, exhibitors from 21 food sectors, occupying 13 exhibition halls and 162,000 sqm will exhibit their products at SIAL China. Meat, Dairy, Wine, and Beverage remains four of the top food industry growth sectors in China and will have their own dedicated halls. Cold Chain Logistics remains one the sectors with the highest growth potential due to quickly growing fresh food e-commerce and on-demand industry. As a result, at SIAL China 2018, the designated International Cold Chain Logistic Hall will be expanded.
