With the rapid development of the global food industry, optimising and managing supply chains has become the key to corporate competitiveness. This year, SIAL Shanghai will bring professional exhibitors specialising in everything from raw material supply and processing to logistics and distribution, comprehensively covering the F&B industry’s entire supply chain.
China ranks first in the world regarding meat consumption, so meat supply chains will occupy an essential position at SIAL Shanghai 2024. Beef from the United States, Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay, mutton from Australia, and prawns from Ecuador have found their way into Chinese households.
Premium grain-fed beef and pork products from the United States, the world’s largest producer and exporter of grain-fed beef, are well received in the Chinese market. In previous years, US exhibitors’ showcased not only various high-quality steaks and American wagyu beef but also a diverse range of products derived from cattle and pigs, such as pork ribs and collar butt.
Uruguay also participated in SIAL Shanghai as an Honorary Guest Country in 2023, successfully showcasing its meat products and expanding its trade network through this international platform. The country’s mandatory traceability system and strict prohibition of antibiotics and hormones ensure that its products are natural and good for consumers’ health.
Enterprises such as Grand Farm have special production sites for domestic sheep and cattle in Xilinhot, Inner Mongolia, and Zhaodong, Heilongjiang. They also cooperate with world-renowned beef and mutton export enterprises such as Alliance in New Zealand and JBS in Brazil to ensure a long-term and stable supply of high-quality meat.
With the continuous expansion of the global meat market and growing consumer demand for quality meat products, SIAL Shanghai has become a significant platform for the global meat industry. Many international trading companies, including T-Nice and CP Goods, hope to expand their business and explore new market opportunities through this event.
The SIAL Global Food Industry Summit will be held simultaneously, including special forums such as the International Meat Forum and Food Supply Chain Forum. The summit will also feature a brand-new steak competition, the SIAL Steak Award, to promote further innovation and exchanges in the industry.
SIAL Shanghai 2024 will take place at the Shanghai New International Expo Center from the 28th to the 30th of May.
