It's China's mass market that offers the best opportunities
One of the things which surprised me as I walked round a WuMart supermarket in Beijing recently was the number of Western brands on the shelves. Pampers, Quaker Oats and even Blue Nun wine at an eye-watering £18 a bottle jumped out.
With that fresh in my mind, I was not remotely surprised last week when Bright Food, one of China's largest food groups, snapped up 60pc of Weetabix – the Chinese appetite for Western products is far from restricted to luxury brands.Comment
