U.S. agricultural exports to China totaled about $33 billion in 2021, again making it the largest market for U.S. agricultural exports. China's demand for imported beer, spirits, and wine has increased significantly over the past decade, especially within the last year. In 2021, China imported $2,536 million in distilled spirits, $1,815 million in wine, and $710 million in beer worldwide.
Hong Kong is one of the top markets in the world for food and beverages and is the 7th largest market for the U.S. In 2021, Hong Kong imported from the U.S. over $44 million in wine and related products, and $9.5 million in non- alcoholic beverages.
