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.
