As Hong Kong consumers increasingly prioritize health and sustainable lifestyles, EU organic food, with its strict production standards and exceptional quality, is gradually becoming a favoured choice in the Hong Kong market.

To further raise awareness for EU organic food and the sustainable agricultural concepts behind it, the three-year project “European Organic: Nurturing Nature, Nourishing You,” supported by the EU, successfully held a trade workshop on November 4, 2024, at the Nature Discovery Park at K11 Musea in Hong Kong.

At this event, professionals from the food sector in Hong Kong were invited to learn more about the high quality standards and wide product range that EU organic stands for.

The green commitment of EU Standards: Why choose EU organic?

EU organic food not only surpasses conventional agricultural products in quality, but its core advantage lies in strict production and certification standards. EU organic agriculture adheres to sustainable development principles, avoiding chemical pesticides and synthetic fertilizers while maintaining soil health and biodiversity through natural methods. This green production approach not only helps combat climate change but also creates a healthy habitat for wildlife.

By avoiding synthetic fertilizers and maintaining healthy soil, EU organic agriculture contributes significantly to reducing carbon emissions. Choosing EU organic food helps Chinese consumers enjoy safe and healthy products while supporting global climate protection and sustainable development efforts.

Dual assurance of environment and quality: The rigorous certification of EU organic food

The certification of EU organic food covers all areas, including crop production, horticulture, livestock farming, and aquaculture. All certified EU organic foods must comply with the EU’s strict organic agriculture regulations, ensuring they meet organic standards throughout the production, processing, and trading stages. EU organic agriculture prohibits the use of genetically modified organisms and chemical pesticides, controlling pests through natural methods. These strict regulations ensure that EU organic food is not only safe and reliable but also positively impacts the environment and biodiversity.

The EU organic label and Naturland Certification: A transparent trust system

The EU organic label, known as the “European Leaf” logo, symbolizes the EU’s commitment to nature and sustainable development. Products bearing this label must contain at least 95% organic agricultural ingredients and fully comply with EU organic production standards. Each product is subject to annual inspections by independent third-party organizations, ensuring transparency in its production, processing, and sales processes. This certification system provides consumers with a trustworthy guarantee regarding the source of the products.
