Hong Kong: ATO Hong Kong Introduces US Foods and Agriculture at Local University

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   HK2022-0020

On March 15, 2022, ATO Hong Kong gave a virtual lecture on U.S. foods and agriculture at Polytechnic University. The lecture reached around 80 students from different majors as part of the University’s course “Evolution of World Cuisine.” Organized by ATO, this platform also allowed U.S. Wheat Associates, USA Poultry & Egg Export Council, U.S. Dairy Export Council, and the Raisin Administrative Committee to participate and introduce their products. Originally intended as an in-person event, the virtual seminar facilitated a dynamic question and answer session where U.S. panelists addressed topics such as sustainability, climate change, supply chain issues, and quality standards of U.S. foods. This successful collaboration has paved the way for future opportunities to work with Polytechnic University and continue promoting U.S. foods in Hong Kong.
