Notes to Editors:

China Food is a well-established food manufacturing business based in Shandong province in the People's Republic of China, a region with a population of circa 94 million. A recent report identified Shandong province as one of the five most attractive 'city clusters' in China, due to the high number of large cities in the province*. The Group manufactures numerous different product lines including soya sauce and bean paste, all targeting the Chinese domestic market, and sold through a network of distributors and outlets of supermarket chains in the north-eastern region of the PRC, such as Walmart, Carrefour and Jialejia.

The Chinese sauces, dressings and condiments market is expected to be worth CNY115 billion (US$15 billion) by 2013**, driven by Chinese population growth and economic prosperity. The Chinese domestic market is rapidly expanding, and the Group is well positioned to benefit from China's demographic growth and increased urbanisation.

The first phase of expansion is now complete at the Group's new factory, which was officially opened on 12 May 2010, and this doubles China Food's current capacity. It is proposed that in due course there will be a further two phases, adding capacity of 100,000 tonnes through the building of 230 additional silos. The Group plans to expand into the neighbouring provinces such as Henan and Hebei.

The Group also operates an animal feed business, Fuss Feed. This business produces premix, concentrate and compound feedstuffs, and is the third largest animal feed business in Shandong, an important province for the production of livestock in China.

The Group's operations are highly scalable and able to support further growth, and with net assets of GBP39 million (as at 31 December 2011), the prospects for China Food are strong. Further information on China Food Company can be found at www.chinafoodcompany.com.
