Shanghai's large food production enterprises have recently formed alliances with small and micro enterprises, with shopping malls like battlefields
Shopping malls are like battlefields, allowing large enterprises to attract small enterprises at critical times. Such good deeds have not been many in the past, but the Shanghai food production industry has recently sparked a trend of "big leads small".
Shanghai Kerry Food Industry Co., Ltd. is a food production enterprise with an annual output value of 4 billion yuan. Its main business includes oil refining, production, warehousing, etc. Recently, this large enterprise has actually put down its position and helped a small and micro enterprise cultivate technical talents, providing training on inspection theory and practical operations to its inspectors. It has also assisted in improving production process flow, material balance system, and testing instrument configuration, enhancing the monitoring ability of hygiene indicators in oil production, and strengthening warehouse management.
This small and micro food production enterprise is Shanghai Chenjia Food Technology Co., Ltd., engaged in edible vegetable oil packaging. Chairman Zhou Wei stated that the company has limited funds and has solved key technical problems encountered in their development through pairing. It is expected that sales revenue will exceed 10 million yuan this year, with an expected increase of more than 25% compared to 2022.
"Big leads small", such a "group" can also bring benefits to large enterprises.

Shanghai Nestle Co., Ltd. is a large enterprise with an annual output value of approximately 1.4 billion yuan, mainly engaged in the production of solid beverages. At the recent pairing and co construction ceremony, it caught the eye of Shanghai Jianghan Health Technology Co., Ltd., a small and micro food production enterprise engaged in plant beverage production.
"We pass on our experience in food safety risk management to small businesses, which is beneficial to the entire industry in the long run." Zhang Mingjian, Food Safety Director of Shanghai Nestle Co., Ltd., said that if paired with our own suppliers, sharing our technological and talent advantages will help further ensure the quality and safety of the supply chain, and ultimately benefit large enterprises; If it is not your own supplier, you can find more opportunities, or leverage the advantage of "same city" through cooperation, reduce supplier management and transportation costs, or explore some potential supplier and customer lists to achieve a win-win situation.
The development of "big leads small" still requires relevant government departments to build a "bridge" to promote it.
On September 20th, a reporter from Jiefang Daily and Shangguan News learned from the Shanghai Market Supervision Bureau that the bureau has recently issued the "Guiding Opinions on Carrying out the Food Production" Activity of "Large Enterprises Leading Small Enterprises to Work Together for Development", guiding large enterprises, third-party institutions, industry associations, universities and other social forces to pair up and cooperate with small and medium-sized enterprises with demand and potential, share resource advantages, solve bottlenecks that restrict their talent, management, and technology, and enhance their risk resistance and development resilience.

In the future, more food production enterprises in Shanghai will tie ties through various "friendship" platforms established by government departments. The Shanghai Municipal Administration for Market Regulation stated that seminars on high-quality development of food production enterprises, training centers for food production license supervision at the city and city levels, and various thematic discussions will all serve as "matchmakers", focusing on legal and regulatory requirements, advanced management models, risk analysis and control, process technology iteration, and other content to help enterprises improve their management system construction, enhance digital management level, strengthen professional talent training, and promote the high-quality development of the entire food industry chain.
