The Hong Kong Health Food Association also strengthened communication with its counterpart, the China Nutrition and Health Food Association, and greatly admired their efforts and achievements in promoting the establishment of industry standards. At the same time, they also learned about changes in relevant cross-border laws, regulations, and policies from different regulatory authorities. The traditional Chinese medicine and health products industries in China have been developing rapidly. We hope to have more opportunities in the future to participate in the industry development in the Greater Bay Area and even in China as a whole. We also hope that more members can benefit from it.
