We look forward to seeing you at the incoming EU Pork tasting in Chengdu this June!

In the past year, domestic pork prices have remained high, with pork imports having reached a recorded high since 2019. In 2021, imported pork will be facing more opportunities and challenges. The European Union is the main sourcing partner for pork in China. Although local prices are expected to fall during 2021, understanding the key differences among the myriad of options available internationally is essential to seize the opportunities in the new year, optimize operations, and ensure delivering top value to your clients.

We are delighted to invite you to attend an exclusive tasting event at one of Chengdu’s finest hotels, the Ritz-Carlton (成都丽思卡尔顿酒店). During this tasting, professional chef Zhang Zhenyu will elaborate on different topics, including pork cuts, key merits and specific characteristics of EU pork, with the objective of increasing the knowledge among meat and F&B professionals about pork from the European Union, China’s main sourcing partner.

Meanwhile, the executive chef of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Simon, will perform a cooking demo on stage. Attendees will get to taste an individual portion of four different dishes, paired with superb EU wines selected by Chief Sommelier Henry. That’s not all! Cured meats such as ham are Spain and Portugal’s national treasure, and as such, a ham carving demonstration and tasting will be performed by ham carver Tang Jia.
