China's economy is growing, with the country being the second largest economy and the world's top importer and exporter. The economy is very diverse and is dominated by different food sectors but, the agro products in China are in deficit and are worsening, which leads to an increase of imports. At the same time, China is also in deficit in milk and dairy products, and the Chinese consume more and more dairy products every day. The food market of import products in China is growing quickly and having a sales representative under an umbrella company looks to be an effective way to approach the Chinese food market. With a lot of issues and scandals under the local food market in China, more and more local Chinese enjoy imported Western products to preserve the health of their families as food safety is becoming more and more important. It is estimated that China will be the biggest importer in the food sector by 2015-2020.
