Winning in Indonesia: Liangzhilong's Deep Dive into Indonesian Supply Chain & Culinary Market for Chinese Cuisine Going Global
Source: | Author:GSTF | Published time: 2024-09-19 | 51 Views | Share:

In recent years, as Chinese culinary chain brands gradually saturate the domestic market, they have begun to seek new market opportunities abroad, making overseas expansion an inevitable path. From Southeast Asia to Europe and America, the presence of Chinese cuisine is increasingly evident.

In 2023, Chinese culinary brands such as Xiabu Xiabu, Zhu Guangyu Hotpot, Fish Inn, Zhengxin Chicken, and Nonggengji opened stores overseas, marking a small peak in the overseas expansion of Chinese cuisine. The year 2023 has also been hailed as the "first year of Chinese culinary going global." Overseas expansion has become an important way for Chinese culinary enterprises to compete for new growth spaces, and the trillion-dollar overseas market is waiting to be tapped.

According to Frost & Sullivan data analysis, as of 2021, overseas Chinese culinary revenue reached USD 261.1 billion, accounting for 9.9% of the international culinary market. It is estimated that by 2026, the overseas Chinese culinary market size is expected to reach USD 409.8 billion. Compared to the overall scale of nearly RMB 3 trillion, the market potential is infinite.


Explosive Growth in Culinary Industry: Indonesia is a Must-Choose Destination for Chinese Cuisine Going Global


On August 16, Tai Er Sour and Spicy Fish announced the opening of its first store in Indonesia, located at the Mall of Indonesia in Jakarta.

Before Tai Er Sour and Spicy Fish entered the Indonesian market, many Chinese culinary brands also officially opened their first stores in Indonesia this year, such as Jiaolezhiji, Yao Yao Sour and Spicy Fish, Yang Guofu Spicy Hotpot, Shuyi Shaoxiancao, etc. Looking back further, Zhang Liang Spicy Hotpot and Kudi both opened their first stores in Indonesia in 2023. What magic does the Indonesian market possess that attracts wave after wave of Chinese culinary enterprises to enter?

In recent years, with the steady growth of Indonesia's economy and the continuous deepening of economic and trade relations between China and Indonesia, the demand for Chinese cuisine in the Indonesian domestic market has been increasingly strong, providing a broad stage for Chinese cuisine brands and ingredient enterprises.

As the capital and largest city in Indonesia, Jakarta not only possesses a huge consumer market but also harbors unlimited business development opportunities. In Jakarta, more and more locals are beginning to try and love Chinese cuisine, and the diversification and unique flavors of Chinese cuisine just cater to the Indonesian consumers' pursuit of novel cuisines.

Furthermore, Jakarta's culinary characteristics are also unique. The culinary market here not only retains traditional Indonesian cuisine but also continuously absorbs and integrates dishes from around the world, moving towards high-quality and diversified development. The market maintains continuous growth, undoubtedly providing more market entry points and development spaces for Chinese cuisine enterprises.

To gain a direct understanding of Indonesian market demand and consumption habits, and to assist in exploring this market full of challenges and opportunities, from November 11-15, the organizing committee of Liangzhilong's China Ingredient E-commerce Festival will organize the Liangzhilong's Deep Dive into Indonesian Supply Chain & Culinary Market for Chinese Cuisine Going Global event. This event will lead domestic ingredient enterprises and chain culinary brands interested in overseas expansion to conduct in-depth inspections in Jakarta, Indonesia, connect with Indonesian political and commercial resources, understand local investment and market environments, and build an efficient channel for market research, investment inspection, and business exchanges for Chinese cuisine going global in Indonesia.


Official endorsement from both China and Indonesia to precisely understand needs and connect practical resources


The Liangzhilong·Chinese Capital (Chinese Cuisine) Overseas Expansion to Indonesia In-depth Tour, hosted by the Indonesia-China Economic, Social, and Cultural Association and the China National Native Produce & Animal By-products Import & Export Corporation Chamber of Commerce, will also invite authoritative government and business guests from both China and Indonesia.
