Canadian edge in Hong Kong food trade grows
Hong Kong, a major Asian trade hub with over seven million people, hosts a notable Canadian presence nearly 200 000 residents and a consumer base receptive to Canadian food products. In 2007 Canada supplied about 3 percent of HK food and agri imports and led with a 21.5 percent rise since 2004 to 443.4 million Canadian dollars. Geoduck, mink skins, sea foods and canola oil highlighted exports while market access hinges on broker networks and local import agents.
