The first ever Australian International Food and Wine Fair will be held in Tianjin in June next year, which will see Australian wine, fruit and vegetables, nuts, honey, olives and olive oil exported to China.
Lord Mayor Robert Doyle, who is currently leading a business delegation in China, said Australia was well-known across the world for its food and wine industry.
“We have a strong reputation for being clean and green in our food production. Melbourne’s own Food and Wine Festival, which has been running for almost 20 years, is an extraordinary success with Melburnians,” the Lord Mayor said.
“China’s rising middle class and purchasing power is opening the door to many new opportunities for exporters back home and the signing of this MOU will be of great benefit to producers in the Mildura region.”
