During the 1950 Taiwan was largely an agricultural economy, and Huang started the business from scratch. Years of hard work and accumulated experience plus careful attention to quality paid off as Huang's honey gained a solid reputation among consumers. As he reached an age where he could no longer do everything himself, Huang looked for a successor to take up the work. He hoped his three sons would carry on the family business, and the sons were ready to honor their father's legacy by indeed returning home to carry on the task. With decades of hard work by the second generation of Huangs, the business has continued thrive, sales network includes Carrefour, RT-mart, PX-mart and Wellcome etc. Now a third generation of Huangs is taking over the family business. In 2002 the family set up the Tu- Ku Cooperative Farm with the assistance of the Council of Agriculture, also establishing BeeHouse brand and moving on toward more modern methods of operation. 1.2 Business Philosophy BeeHouse is dedicated to research and development of natural bee products that meet 2 the highest international standards for quality. Thus we rigorously follow the guidelines established by ISO 22000, HACCP and HALAL standard, and installed automatic production equipments.

It is not an easy job like someone else thought. Since I was a high school student, I already knew that I need to work at my family’s business and take over the company. Therefore, I planned to study some business related department when I was high school student. However, my score of university test let me study in DAFL. This is the reason of way I am here. I practice in my family company which is called BeeHouse. We are one of the most professional bee products company in Taiwan. We have sale bee products such as Honey, Royal Jelly, Bee pollen, Propolis, Enzyme, Vinegar, etc. This is a new domain which I never touch before. In order to know the characteristic or quality of those products, I studied more than ten internal or external books of every kind of products, bees and nutriology about one year ago. After I get in touch with bee products, I realize that how amazing of bee product or bee’s ecology it is. In Taiwan, we may think that honey is just an agricultural product. However, in other countries such as America, Europe or Japan, people think honey is a health care product which can provide many nutrients of human body need. We need to find out the problem and tell everyone that honey is not just an agricultural product. At first, we only worked on how to sell their products. Having gone through 14 many challenges, and now realizes in this field, there exist the most touching and beautiful people and things as well as many secrets remained to be discovered. Although it draws very little attention from other people, it is worth our lifetime dedications. We have the responsibility to share such beautiful thing with other people. Nevertheless, an ecological crisis is hidden that more and more pesticide contaminated and uncontrolled biotechnological products have destroyed the earth and caused environmental pollutions. We saw numerous dead bees lying on the orchard. People sprayed pesticides when fruit trees only blossomed but had not yet fruited. Antibiotics were not given, but antibiotic residues were found. This was due to that water supply for the breeding farm was contaminated. While climate transition is getting serious, we should ask ourselves what we can do and what we can save. When we were taking down about bee breeding farms, we had the chance to meet some couples at 50 to 60 years of age; women usually looked much younger. We wondered if there were some unknown secrets. After looking up many national and international articles, and reading laboratory testing reports, we found out that bee products contain diverse and abundant ingredients. How amazing the mother earth is! We shall keep going to explore such wonderful area! Bees when just hatched begin their different roles of work. They go out in the 15 daytime and return to the nest at night, and flip their wings to get rid of excess moisture in honey. They work day and night to complete their duties in their two-month life. Their hard work gives us bee products, which contain many secret codes of life. How amazing it is! There exists rationality and sensibility in bees' little world. If bees have consciousness like human, how would they think of us? We are going to explore their world. Where does honey come from? Bee collect pollen and nectar and carry it back to the hive where the processes of fermentation and aging result in the product that the beekeeper harvests. There is also having many type of honey. Most honey is classified by the type of nectar source, the region or the season during which it is harvested. Different regions have different kind of plants and the bees may collect nectars such as Longan, Litchi, Orange, Sunflower and multi-flora honey which are harvested at different times of the year depending on when the flowers bloom in their respective areas. Summer, fall, winter and spring may all find their way into the names of various types of honey as it is difficult to offer hard classifications.

    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Voluntary - Public Date: 7/5/2011 GAIN Report Number: TW11014 Taiwan Post: Taipei ATO Gift Pack Market Report Categories: Product Brief Approved By: Jeffrey Hesse, Chief, Agriculture Section, AIT Taipei Prepared By: Amy Chang-Chien Hsueh, Agricultural Marketing Specialist Report Highlights: Traditionally, people in Taiwan send food products in gift packages to their friends and relatives during three major lunar year festivals: Chinese New Year; the Dragon Boat Festival; and the Moon Festival. Of the many kinds of gifts given, imported food products that are perceived to provide health benefits, such as jams, nuts, dried fruits, candies and cookies -- either organic or conventional, are seen as demonstrating good prospects in Taiwan. General Information: Overview Gift packages are an important item in Taiwan's retail sales. Traditionally, people in Taiwan send food products in gift packages to their friends and relatives during three major lunar year festivals: Chinese New Year (usually in February); the Dragon Boat Festival (usually in June); and the Moon Festival (usually in September). In preparation for the traditional gift giving during these festivals, producers and importers prepare the gift boxes before the holiday time. Many food distributors aggressively promote the gift packages by holding product presentations for retailers. Retail stores print gift box brochures and adopt various promotional strategies, including price discounts and/or other extraordinary strategies to attract clients. These activities mark the start of the scramble for the festival gift box market, which is estimated at about US$2 billion or about five percent of total retail food sales in Taiwan.

  • Market Snapshot - Taiwan's Retail Food Sector Report Categories: Retail Food Sector Approved By: Valerie Brown-Jones Prepared By: Angela Itoge
    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Voluntary - Public Date: 11/29/2011 GAIN Report Number: Taiwan Post: Taipei ATO Market Snapshot - Taiwan's Retail Food Sector Report Categories: Retail Food Sector Approved By: Valerie Brown-Jones Prepared By: Angela Itoge Report Highlights: Taiwan's retail food sector is becoming increasingly competitive. Challenges in the middle tier and low-priced markets include decreased sales of premium products due to the recent economic slowdown. Nevertheless, there are great opportunities for U.S. exporters as the growth of premium retail chains continues unabated. Gourmet food importers are increasing imports of premium meats, condiments and health foods, but lower-priced supermarkets will continue to rely on brand recognition and pricing compatibility in wholesale purchase decision- making. General Information: General Information: The Agricultural Trade Office (ATO) in Taipei interviewed company executives and managers at three large supermarkets representing the three subsectors of Taiwan's retail food market: City Super (high-end), Sung Ching/Matsusei (medium-priced), and PX Mart (discount). Each market category prioritizes distinct factors for overall import purchasing decisions, but brand recognition and proven success overseas are important factors for each retail subsector. The interviews also provided insight into food product trends in the Taiwan market, which often serves as a harbinger for coming trends in the greater China market. Market Overview City Super: High End Grocer -- Small But Growing Luxury retail grocers represent a growing niche market in Taiwan. As Taiwan travelers continue to go abroad in large numbers to vacation and conduct business, their appreciation and expectation of food diversity has created room for high end retailers such as City Super.

TABLE OF CONTENTS: 1!OVERVIEW 1!COMMONLY IMPORTED PRODUCTS 3!MARKET CONDITIONS BY SECTOR GO TO MARKET REPORT: 5!DISTRIBUTION 5!RECENT TRENDS Taiwan 6!RESOURCES 7!REFERENCES Overview: Domestic agricultural production in Taiwan is limited, making Taiwan increasingly dependent on imported food and other agricultural products. In 2012, food and agriculture product imports in Taiwan were valued at US$11.108 billion, up from US$3.87 billion in 2011. The United States is the leading supplier of food and agricultural imports to Taiwan, and Taiwan was the seventh largest market for U.S. Agricultural exports in 2012, with US$3.2 billion. Although US exports have been bulk commodities, consumer-oriented products imported from the U.S. in 2012 (red meats, poultry, fresh fruits, processed fruits and vegetables, tree nuts, dairy products and snack foods) were valued at US$1.1 billion, up a record six percent. Approximately 70 percent of organic food and beverages sold in Taiwan are imported. Health and wellness sales grew in 2012, fueled in part by diet-related health concerns and a mini baby boom in 2011 and 2012. Within Taiwan’s farming sector, about 45 percent of the labor force is over age 65, leading to additional government assistance for the agriculture sector, including promoting transition to organic production and further development of the high-value-added food processing industry.

  • Country Market Profile: Taiwan Euromonitor Reports That Taiwan's
    Country Market Profile: Taiwan Euromonitor reports that Taiwan’s economy actually grew in 2020. Domestic activity has been affected by measures taken to contain the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, but the recession has not been as sharp as in other countries, which were slower to react to the pandemic. Export performance is limited by the global slowdown due to COVID- 19. Growth of real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) should continue rising to 4.4% in 2021, before dipping to around 1.7% per year in 2025-2027. • Real GDP grew to 3.1% in 2020, up from growth of 2.7% in 2019. • The real value of private final consumption grew by 2.2% in 2019 and a fall of 1.7% is expected in 2020. Consumer spending has been limited by Coronavirus (COVID- 19) pandemic measures. • The rate of employment has been slowly rising and presently accounts for about two- thirds of the working-age labor force. Unemployment was 3.9% in 2020. Many businesses are struggling to weather COVID-19 and have to make lay-offs or are facing closure. • The present government’s goal of lessening economic dependence on China will be a key priority over the next several years. The key to this strategy is Taiwan’s New Southbound Policy, which aims to promote trade and investment with other Asian countries. A long-term challenge is to remain competitive with Asian rivals as they expand their free trade deals with Taiwan’s trading partners. Taiwan’s new Asia Silicon Valley Development Plan aims to promote research and development for devices and applications of the “internet of things”.
