China’s Safety Requirements Pose Challenge for Food Exporters May 03, 2021
China food safety requirements can cause food shipments to be turned away at the China border.
Processed, consumer-ready foods and beverages such as wine top the list of items that have not met the requirements of Chinese inspectors.
China’s food imports rose 12 percent from 2006 to 2019 as demand for a variety of foods increased.
The number of rejected shipments has declined for exporters from the United States and European Union, but China has increased its scrutiny of food coming from less-developed nations such as Vietnam, India, and Thailand.
Imported foods such as seafood, meat, processed foods, and beverages are becoming more common on China’s supermarket shelves and restaurant tables, creating opportunities for exporters around the world.

Food security is a growing concern globally, with two billion people being subject to moderate to severe food insecurity in 2019 according to the United Nation’s Food and Agriculture Organisation. Food security consists of four interconnected pillars: food availability (how much is produced), food access (can people afford food), food use (how is food prepared and consumed) and stability (how stable is the food supply and consumption).
Large-scale droughts can have cascading impacts on all these four pillars. They can reduce yield which may result in food price spikes, trigger changes in consumption, and lead to unstable supply and consumption of food. The impacts of such climate extremes are often felt hardest by subsistence farmers who become less self-sufficient and are therefore forced to buy their staple foods at local markets.
