Invest Hong Kong welcomes Sichuan food   

香港機構：香港是四川餐飲企業走出去的“跳板”

16日，香港投資推廣署在成都舉辦“立足香港•邁向國際”香港餐飲業商機推介會，鼓勵當地企業充分利用香港的營商優勢，以香港為“跳板”，開拓國際市場。

Chengdu (CNS) -- As of June, Hong Kong has set up 4,331 enterprises in Sichuan Province, Simon Galpin, director-general of Invest Hong Kong, said at a catering industry conference on Tuesday.

Also, more and more entrepreneurs from Sichuan Province are turning their eyes to Hong Kong, an optimal place for financing and a good entry point for the international market, added Galpin.

Chengdu is the capital of delicious food and has a sound catering industry, so we expect more Sichuan restaurants to put down roots in Hong Kong and then expand their influence worldwide, said Galpin.

We will offer long-term, free services to enterprises from the mainland, said Jiang Xueli, head of tourism and catering at Invest Hong Kong. He suggested that mainland restaurants should adjust their menus to satisfy Hong Kong customers.
