Malaysia: Food Processing Ingredients
The overall food processing sector is growing at about five percent per year, with dairy, bakery, and processed fish products among the leading sectors. Halal compliance, though not necessary, is a must if U.S. food exporters wish to enter Malaysia’s market. New manufacturing facilities are being built, both to meet domestic needs and for export. Best U.S. prospects include dairy powders, dried and preserved fruits and vegetables, wheat, soybeans, beef, poultry, pollock, lobsters and nuts.
