The agriculture and food exhibition area at the 7th China International Import Expo (CIIE) has become a vibrant stage for participating countries to showcase their unique culinary treasures. This year holds special significance as it marks the 60th anniversary of diplomatic ties between China and France, as well as the China-France culture year. In celebration of these milestones, several French companies are bringing their finest products to Chinese consumers.
From the lush vineyards of Bordeaux to the rolling hills of Provence, France's rich agricultural heritage is on full display. Visitors to the expo are invited to embark on a culinary journey, exploring the flavors and traditions that have made French cuisine renowned worldwide.
What makes this year's exhibition particularly exciting is the emphasis on the seamless journey of French ingredients from farm to Chinese dining tables. Thanks to integrated logistics and streamlined customs procedures, French products are traveling more smoothly and swiftly than ever before.
"We are thrilled to share our heritage and passion for food with the people of China," said a representative from one of the participating French companies. "The improvements in logistics and customs have greatly enhanced our ability to deliver fresh, high-quality ingredients to Chinese consumers."
The expo not only strengthens trade relations but also fosters cultural exchange between the two nations. Through shared culinary experiences, China and France continue to build bridges of understanding and appreciation.
As visitors sample the array of French delicacies—from artisan cheeses to exquisite pastries—they are experiencing more than just food; they are partaking in a celebration of friendship and collaboration that spans six decades.
