Event Background

The food flavors market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2013 to 2018. Natural food flavors have attracted the attention of food ingredients manufacturers as a result of increasing consumer demand for fresh and natural products. North America is currently the largest market for food flavors, followed by Asia-Pacific and Europe. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest growing market, followed by Europe.

The China flavor market is flourishing due to increasing consumer demands in F&B, tobacco, wines. This is largely due to rising levels of disposable personal incomes, urbanization, brand exposure and greater retail distribution. In addition to this, the increasing variety and higher consumption requirements in taste and heath also create great opportunities as well as posing great challenges to the flavor industry.

It is against this backdrop that this summit will be launched. It seeks out to provide an effective platform on which participants can learn about the latest policies and regulations, the latest China and global market trends as well as the most up to date innovations in R&D and application directions. This will be an invaluable resource for creating your development strategy for China. Furthermore, speakers from the Chinese central government, institutions and world leading enterprises will be in attendance and will share their valuable viewpoints and experience in international flavor development.
