Benefited from the policies of ASEAN-China Free Trade Area (ACFTA), the trade and investment volume of food between China and ASEAN has been increasing rapidly. ASEAN is China’s second biggest food trading partner by now and the cooperation keeps on deepening in all-round dimensions. ASEAN is one of the most important food import destination for China. Its fruits, vegetables, as well as seafood are becoming more and more popular in China. Currently, as e-commerce is developing very fast, ASEAN-China fresh food trade is catching up with the good opportunity. ACC is committed to contributing its bridging role for strengthening ASEAN-China e-commerce cooperation.
