Starch Industry research Report

With intense competition and rising manufacture cost, profit for starch production has shrunk largely recently. And the industry is facing overcapacity. Under this circumstance, many small producers without enough competitiveness have be phased out from the market, while large producers survived through expanding product varieties, improving product quality, cooperating with upstream and downstream companies, etc. The industrial concentration of starch industry in China is intensifying, which can be reflected by the tendency of producers' concentration in regions with abundant supply of raw materials and frequent M&A. This is the first edition report on China's starch industry finished by CCM. Presenting an in-depth analysis of China's current starch supply and demand, this report attaches importance to the following parts: Supply (capacity, output and key producers) and demand (by volume) for starch, modified starch and starch derivatives in China, 2008-2011; Import & export of starch, 2009-2011; Forecast on supply & demand of starch and identification of key factors influencing the development of the industry; Mass balance of starch industry in China and commercial opportunities.
