New Market Research Report: Hong Kong Food & Drink Report 2016

Despite largely favourable business and regulatory environment, food and drink market in Hong Kong is highly mature and saturated thus presenting limited growth opportunities for foreign investors. Economic headwinds facing the territory over the coming quarters will put a further restraint on consumer spending. That said, we believe that innovative, convenience-oriented and private label products will continue to enjoy relatively high popularity over the coming year.
