Hong Kong:
An Expanding Market for Nutraceuticals

Hong Kong's ageing population is spending more on health supplements and nutraceuticals. It was estimated that Hong Kong's market size for health supplements and nutraceuticals is approximately CAD 420 million per annum and expanding. Slimming products, immune enhancement, and hair growth promotion products are particularly popular in Hong Kong.

If you are interested in this lucrative and expanding market, you should consider participating in The First International Conference for the Modernization of the Chinese Medicine which is to be held in Hong Kong, March 14-17, 2002. In addition to meeting with Hong Kong companies, the large participation of mainland Chinese and Asian companies will allow you to explore the market opportunity in the Asia Pacific region.
