Original title: More than 200 Hong Kong companies will participate in the third CIIE, and one company will bring artificial pork
The 3rd China International Import Expo will be held in Shanghai on November 5-10 this year. The newspaper’s reporter (www.thepaper.cn) learned that more than 200 Hong Kong companies will participate in this year’s CIIE. Among them, Hong Kong Company Green Monday will bring Omni artificial vegetable pork.
The Hong Kong Trade Development Council said that this year’s CIIE will bring more than 40 Hong Kong companies to participate in the expo, aiming to introduce Hong Kong’s high-quality products and services on the mainland, helping Hong Kong companies to contact potential customers during the epidemic and expand business opportunities on the mainland.
The mainland Chinese representative of the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, Zhong Yongxi, told reporters that the raging epidemic of the new crown has hampered the business activities of global entities and brought enormous challenges to Hong Kong companies and of the continent. In this situation, the Hong Kong Business Development Council will take the lead to help more Hong Kong entrepreneurs to integrate into the domestic cycle, connect the dual cycles and find new directions for development.
Zhong Yongxi said that the CIIE is an important platform for Hong Kong companies to expand to the mainland market. Hong Kong Business Development Council has organized Hong Kong companies to participate in CIIE for three consecutive years, bringing Hong Kong’s international trade resources, products and professional services to the mainland market.
“In the last two sessions, Hong Kong companies have achieved fruitful results by participating in the CIIE. Many exhibitors signed cooperation intentions and orders on the spot. This year, the scale of participation will be further expanded. The total area of the food pavilion and the service industry pavilion will increase. To 1700 square meters, an increase of 20% over the second session, “said Zhong Yongxi.
Regarding Hong Kong’s service industry, Zhong Yongxi said that Hong Kong has always played an important role in connecting at home and abroad. There are a large number of companies that pool global resources and connect to the global market. Excellent cross-border e-commerce, supply chain management, logistics, brand marketing, innovative technology and other fields of enterprises are brought to the CIIE to provide landing services for the global import of goods in the Chinese market.
The reporter learned that at this CIIE, the Hong Kong company Green Monday will bring Omni artificial vegetable pork. It is understood that it is an artificial meat synthesized from a vegan protein formula. Its raw materials come mainly from peas, non-GMO soy, mushrooms and rice. Compared to real pork, this plant-based meat has 86% less saturated fat and 66% fewer calories, while providing more dietary fiber, calcium, and iron.
In recent years, the concept of “artificial meat” has gradually become the focus of the market. Artificial meat refers to a type of protein product that is produced by modifying plant proteins or cell culture instead of using farm animals to obtain animal protein, the texture is close to that of animal muscle.
Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods, America’s leading artificial meat companies, have successively launched a number of artificial meat products in recent years. Beyond Meat mainly uses pea protein as its raw material. In May 2019, the company was listed on the NASDAQ and became the first artificial meat stock. In 2020, the company partnered with China Starbucks to launch the “Xingshanshi” artificial meat lunch menu.
The feature of Impossible Foods veggie meat is that the burgers have bloody juices and will sizzle when grilled. The raw materials for this vegetable meatloaf are soy protein, coconut oil, and heme. Because it involves genetically modified technology, the product has not yet entered mainland China.
