Dry goods, grain and oil, as well as agricultural and sideline dry goods products, are essential basic categories in the global food supply chain, covering multiple sub categories such as dried fruits, miscellaneous grains, dry food ingredients, and food ingredients. With product characteristics such as storage resistance, easy transportation, strong universality, and adaptability to all consumption scenarios, they cover all overseas markets worldwide and are the core matching products for multi category mixed container exports. This type of product is different from deep processed foods such as canned food and tea drinks. It focuses on natural and original ecology, no excessive processing, and complete nutrition preservation. It mainly meets the diversified needs of overseas families' daily diet, catering kitchen, and food factory deep processing. The market demand attribute is extremely strong, and it is minimally affected by market fluctuations.
The core quality standards for export grade dry goods products are concentrated in five dimensions: dryness, cleanliness, integrity, no mold, and no insect infestation. The moisture content of the product must be strictly controlled within the international standard range. If the moisture content is too high, it will cause moisture, mold, clumping, and deterioration during sea transportation, which is the most common product quality problem for dry goods exports. All dry goods products need to undergo multiple screening, dust removal, and impurity removal processes to thoroughly eliminate impurities, broken materials, moldy particles, and insect infested particles, ensuring that the finished products are clean, tidy, and uniform in appearance. At the same time, strict differentiation of grade specifications is required, with high-quality dry goods particles that are full, uniform in size, and naturally colored, suitable for the high-end retail market; Conventional dry goods have stable appearance and high cost-effectiveness, suitable for mass circulation and industrial deep processing markets.
In terms of packaging and storage compatibility, exported dry goods products are packaged in moisture-proof, dust-proof, and sealed special packaging, effectively isolating water vapor, salt, and moisture from sea transportation, and preventing product moisture absorption, deterioration, and odor pollution. Due to the weak adsorption and strong stability of dry goods products, they can be mixed with canned food, packaged food and other categories for export without affecting the quality of other products, making them the best matching category for multi SKU container exports. In addition, dry food ingredient products have higher requirements for purity, cleanliness, and no additives, which are suitable for the standardized production needs of overseas food processing plants. Overall, dry grain, oil, and agricultural products have become an indispensable basic category in the global food export supply chain due to their stable quality, long storage cycle, wide adaptability, and low compliance threshold.
