“Young Chinese Are Interested in<br />
Unique Korean Foods”<br />
Could you briefly introduce your company?<br />
Our company, Shanghai Kingfoods Condiment Co.,<br />
Ltd., is an expert in food imports. We have headquarters<br />
in Shanghai and import foods from the U.S.A.,<br />
the European Union, Canada, Korea, Thailand, and<br />
many other countries. We have distributed more than<br />
300 items for sales in Chinese supermarkets and<br />
stores. In 2010, we imported products worth more<br />
than USD$4 million from Korea.<br />
What made you import Korean agri-products?<br />
I think Korean foods are very unique and, at the same<br />
time, have a long tradition, so more and more of our<br />
customers want to try Korean foods.<br />
What kinds of Korean agri-products are you importing?<br />
From Korea, we are currently importing honey citron<br />
tea and condiments, with a particular focus on two famous<br />
brands - the honey citron tea of “Samhwa<br />
Hanyang” and the soy sauce and condiments of<br />
“Sempio.”<br />
How large is the imported amount of Korean agriproducts?<br />
Last year, we imported more than 50 containers of<br />
honey citron tea and more than 15 containers of<br />
Sempio condiments.<br />

Who are the main consumers<br />
of the imported<br />
Korean agri-products?<br />
Both foreigners who live in<br />
China and local consumers<br />
buy Korean foods. Young<br />
Chinese especially are quite familiar<br />
with the Korean foods.<br />
They want to try different<br />
lifestyles.<br />
How do local people respond<br />
to the imported<br />
Korean agri-products? Has<br />
the response been favorable?<br />
Chinese consumers trust the quality of Korean foods.<br />
Korean honey citron tea is very popular in China.<br />
Soybean paste and red pepper paste are also becoming<br />
more and more popular. This bodes well for our<br />
company. But I think the price of Korean processed<br />
foods is mostly not cheap. And a quality is often<br />
evenly spread.<br />
Could you tell us about your plans for importing<br />
Korean agri-products and any other business<br />
plans that you would like to share with us?<br />
Since 2007, we have been increasing imports of<br />
Korean foods by 25 percent each year. We plan to select<br />
more Korean brands for import and introduce<br />
new items to the Chinese consumers.<br />
