Bayn Europe Enters China Sugar Reduction Market
Bayn Europe has signed a strategic framework agreement with Kong Wua Group in China, outlining the establishment of a R&D center for sugar reduction and production of sugar replacer solutions. Through the agreement, Bayn and Kong Wua will bring sugar replacer solution to the market to help tackle the sugar over-consumption social problems.
“It is important to maintain the margin and profit when the added sugar is replaced in the processed food and indulgence,” explains Lucy Dahlgren, CEO of Bayn Europe. “We are happy to have signed an agreement with a company that stands outside the traditional food value system, and that want to focus on enabling healthier lifestyles through sugar reduction initiatives. Kong Wua will be a valuable partner as we focus on expanding our business on the Chinese market.”
“In China, the economic growth has led to a change in lifestyle for many people. Recent overconsumption of sugar has caused an increase in social problems such as diabetes and child obesity. At Kong Wua, we see great value in investment opportunities that can help tackle these social problems, and contribute to positive change and healthier habits,” says Qiaozhen Zhang, the president of Kong Wua Investment Group. “We are very happy that Bayn Europe, with their sugar reduction know-how and technical capabilities, have made the decision to enter the Chinese market.”
