Jul 26 2005 | China, Peoples Republic of | Annual | Frozen
Potato Products | CH5053:
Highlight:
China's Frozen French Fry (FFF) consumption is forecast to
increase 20 percent annually in next few years driven by Quick
Service Restaurants (QSRs) rapid growth. China's domestic FFF
production is forecast to increase to 50,000 tons in MY05/06
from 35,000 tons in MY04/05 because two big production lines are
expected to put into production in late 2005. FFF imports are
forecast to increase 20 percent to 84,500 tons in MY05/06 driven
by strong demand. The United States is the largest FFF exporter
to China, however, its share is shrinking because of Canada's
rapid expansion.
