BEIJING—The U.S.–China Health Products Association (USCHPA) and the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT-Chemical Sub-branch) will launch the first annual “China International Nutrition and Health Summit 2014" in Beijing, November 3 and 4, 2014.
With China’s ever-expanding consumer base and its special attention to food safety and health promoting products, China has become a focal point for the global dietary supplement and nutritional ingredient industry. However, attempting to enter the market, one will find that it is filled with hurdles, inconsistences and transparency issues, which have caused many to stop and pause.
The health and nutrition summit is being sponsored by global industry leaders and USCHPA members: Enzymotec, Lallemand, NSF International and TSI Group. It will be the first conference of its kind to bring both foreign and domestic industry leaders together.
China’s FDA and China Nutrition Society will discuss regulations for dietary supplements, as well as medical and functional foods in China. Top registration agents will be covering the latest on registration procedures for both finished dietary supplement products and new raw food material ingredients. E-Commerce expert ExportNow will be discussing China’s growing e-commerce business, KeYuan Shanghai Pharma will be discussing distribution solutions, and Tianjin Free Trade Zone will present on its advantages for foreign companies.
