Li estimates that 99 per cent of the honey on sale in Chinese supermarkets has been processed with other ingredients. “Most have 50 per cent fructose added,” he says.
Now we know why China is buying up Manuka honey.
'China’s middle class craves quality food. Some families have the money to pay for foreign brands such as New Zealand’s Comvita Manuka honey, which this week was selling for $44 a jar in a Beijing supermarket.'
China produced 503,000 tonnes of honey in 2016. If most have 50 per cent fructose added, guess how much more real honey China really needs!
Just like milk powder, China will buy more and more honey from trusted source overseas. Go EVE, learn from A2 milk, work with Daigou and ship the Meluka honey to China ASAP.
