At the Mexico International Food Exhibition (Expo ANTAD) held in March 2025, we had in-depth exchanges with chili industry experts and peers from around the world. The dazzling array of chili products at the exhibition provided us with valuable industry insights and market inspiration, and established technical cooperation with the Mexican Chili Association to understand new industry standards and trends.
During the exhibition period, Wanglong Food's booth received over 1000 professional visitors, including international buyers such as Mexican chain supermarkets and American food distributors. And reached preliminary agreements with 50 international buyers, with a total intention order amount of approximately 1.5 million US dollars.
Through exhibition research, we have observed that there is a growing demand for popular local products such as dried chili peppers, chili noodles, and chili products. Organic certified products are more favored, compound flavors have become a new trend, and sustainable packaging is highly valued. This exhibition provides a direction for the company's future product research and development. Based on the gains from the exhibition, we will establish a demonstration base for chili pepper cultivation in Mexico, develop customized products that meet local tastes, and improve the international quality certification system.
This exhibition is an important step in Wanglong Food's "going global" strategy. Next, the company will accelerate the landing of intended orders and establish a distribution network in the Americas, laying a solid foundation for the international development of our chili industry. We will continue to innovate and provide higher quality chili products to consumers worldwide.
