Canadian representative Director Yao mentioned that the specialty foods in the B.C. Province include seafood, blueberries, cherries, wine, ice wine, and packaged snack foods. She also mentioned that the production of blueberries is ten times larger than that of the cherries. Previously, Canadian food mainly focused on the eastern China market, but currently, they hope to work with our association to deepen their roots in the southern China market, which was the main purpose of their visit. The two sides discussed several development directions in detail, such as online matchmakings and offline wine tasting events. President Qi also said that GDIFA will be willing to provide corresponding training and guidance to Canadian food-related companies to enhance their experience of the southern China market.
