Legal support for food brands and product businesses in China, from individual label reviews to market entry and ongoing compliance.
Products, labels and claims
Review the legal questions raised by your product category, ingredients, documents, proposed claims and sales route. Work can cover Chinese packaging, online product descriptions and marketing materials.
For a label review, the output may include annotated artwork and an issues note identifying changes, missing information and questions requiring technical confirmation.
Bringing a brand or product into China
Connect the entry route with the responsible businesses, distribution arrangements, product documents and questions that need to be resolved before launch. Company and investment work can be coordinated with the market-entry practice.
Manufacturing, suppliers and packaging
Review manufacturing and supply contracts, quality requirements, supplier documents, packaging-related records, change control and the allocation of recall costs and responsibilities.
Regulatory notices and disputes
If a notice, complaint or product concern has arisen, identify the issue and deadline first. The initial work may include reviewing records, clarifying responsibilities and preparing a response plan. Do not delay necessary safety action while awaiting a website reply.
A project or continuing support
An individual product review can be commissioned on its own. Continuing support can cover agreed products, sites, contract work and review capacity, with major incidents or proceedings separately scoped.
Legal review is distinct from laboratory testing and scientific evaluation. Technical specialists and any separate filings are identified in the proposal where required.
Tell us about your product or operation
Describe the business, what you need reviewed, the approximate number of products or sites and any deadline. Confidential formulas and detailed records can follow through the agreed process.
