Guangdong enterprises achieved strong results at the China International Import Expo (CIIE), which wrapped up in Shanghai on November 10. Among them, one signed a cooperation agreement with France's Lesaffre.
LIKOFU FOOD, part of the Cantonese food brand Guangzhou Restaurant, signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Lesaffre China, a key global player in yeast and fermentation technology.
The two sides will work closely on core dough fermentation technologies—covering yeast application, joint product development, brand co-promotion and technique upgrades—to drive technological progress and product innovation in Cantonese-style fermented pastries.
Guangdong was a major presence at this year's CIIE, with quality products from time-honored brands and a wide range of interactive activities such as culinary demonstrations, tastings and lucky draws.
Signature items such as Cantonese-style preserved meats, tangerine peel teas and Lingnan pastries sold well at the expo. Several Guangdong enterprises and distinctive projects were also named among the model cases and on the recommended lists for the innovative development of China's time-honored brands.
