Honey Market in China

The total purchase of foreign goods by China would amount to $ 30 trillion over the next 15 years, while its purchases of services would amount to $ 10 trillion over the same period”, explained Chinese President Xi Jinping to the Chinese International Import Forum. Honey and bee products offer unique market opportunities in China for all Honey producers in the World. China is the leading Honey consumer in the world source

The imported quality honey market in 2024 is shaped by several factors and trends:

  1. Increased Consumer Awareness: There’s a rising awareness among consumers about the health benefits of honey. This awareness, heightened during the peak pandemic period due to honey’s natural immunity-boosting properties, is expected to continue influencing consumer choices.
  2. Organic Honey Demand: Organic honey, which commands a higher price, is expected to offer better growth opportunities. The market is witnessing an increased preference for organic products, particularly among more affluent consumers.
  3. Challenges in Supply and Authenticity: The honey market faces challenges such as climate change affecting bee colonies, the prevalence of fake honey in the market, and the high prices of organic honey compared to its adulterated counterparts.
  4. Diverse Applications and Uses: Honey is extensively used in various sectors, including food and beverages, personal care, and pharmaceuticals. Its natural and versatile qualities make it a popular choice in traditional recipes and new culinary ideas.
  5. Technology Advancements in Production: Technological advancements in beekeeping and honey production are revolutionizing the industry. Innovations like smart beehives and automated extraction processes are enhancing efficiency and productivity.

  1. Hi,

    We are searching for premium brands with history, and already famous in China.

    1. Greetings from Nepal

      Everest organic home is nepal based company who supplies Himalayan Cliff Honey.
      Himalayan Cliff Honey is 100% natural wild raw honey. We work with Gurung tribes and Locals of Annapurna and Manaslu Himalayan ranges of Nepal forests where tribal Honey hunters collect the Wild Raw Honey from natural Bee Hives in cliffs and trees. It requires special skills to collect this honey and is very hard to collect it due to which its price is comparatively higher. This Honey is made by the Himalayan Giant Honey Bees (Apis Dorsata Laboriosa) by collecting the nectar from rhododendron and other wildflowers of the forests in the Himalayas. The forests of these mountain ranges are rich in medicinal plants and this honey is highly popular for its medicinal use and is used extensively for Ayurvedic treatments.

      How our honey is produced?

      Himalayan Cliff Honey is produced by the Himalayan Giant Honey Bees (Apis dorsata laboriosa) from the nectars of Rhododendron, Bikh (Aconitum spp.), Pangra (Entada scanders) and Niramasi and other wild flowers found in high Himalayan range and harvested by the indigenous tribe from the Himalayan cliffs of Nepal.
      This honey is very rare honey and the Himalayan giant bees collect the nectars from the flowers of the forests of Annapurna and Manaslu mountain range very far from human settlements and can be harvested only 1-2 times per year. 
      In Nepal, there are at least 5 different honey bee species. The largest of them is The Giant Bee of Himalayas, Apis dorsata laborisa, a wild bee which builds huge nests on the overhanging rocks of cliff faces, in the high forests of Himalaya. These bees are commonly known as cliff bee or King bees.
      Apis dorsata laboriosa is yellow in color with black strips on each abdominal segment. It builds a single comb, 1 to 1.6 m wide and 0.8 to 1.5 m long, underneath a stout branch of tall tree or building or water tower or cliff to protect their nests from top predators (according to FLETCHER in 1952; SEELEY et al. in 1982; CRANE in 1990; WONGSIRI et. al. in 1996). The comb is protected by several layers of protective curtains. The protective curtains maintain a constant brood nest temperature between 30-33 °C.

        Your product sounds great but how will it compete against the big Chinese honey brands?
