QINGDAO, China, Oct. 01, 2025 — The 16th World Processed Deciduous Fruit Conference (CANCON16), recognized as the premier and most impactful global gathering for the canned fruit sector, recently concluded. The event featured extensive discussions on forthcoming challenges and groundbreaking innovations within the industry. It attracted prominent industry leaders, processors, and cultivators from key producing nations, including the USA, Chile, Argentina, South Africa, and various European countries. Qingdao Countree Food Co., Ltd. held a crucial position, serving as the first official host for the Beijing conference sessions and spearheading the organization of the Caoxian program.
