A business journalist working in China believes it will take a lot of convincing for consumers there to start trusting New Zealand product again.
Business leaders are still in recovery mode following Fonterra’s botulism false alarm.
It is one of the issues that’s been discussed at a China Business Summit held in Auckland yesterday.
Jamil Anderlini, of the Financial Times’ Beijing bureau, says many Chinese residents still think Fonterra products were contaminated.
«The fact that some tests had found a possible problem was very widely reported, and the fact that it was all a false alarm – I barely saw more than one or two small reports about that.»
