With the recent announcement of Colombia's accession to the trade agreement known as the “Silk Road”, the Government, through Invima, has identified food products with export potential to China, with the aim of expanding the export offer and strengthening the presence of the Colombian agri-food sector in Asia.
In addition to beef, which has already been exported to China for several months, Colombia seeks to authorize access to other foods such as pork, farmed shrimp, fishery products, poultry, and other processed products.
For the pork sector, this initiative represents a step forward in the consolidation of a more solid export agenda. Although progress still needs to be made in the specific approval processes for pork products, the willingness of the Chinese authorities to collaborate with Colombia opens a window of opportunity for domestic producers interested in accessing one of the largest consumer markets in the world.
Cooperation between the two countries continues; for the time being, progress is being made in the admissibility processes underway and in the registration of new establishments with the Chinese authorities.
