Huifa Lobster Flavored Balls in the European and American markets

Actual Sales Status of Huifa Lobster Flavored Balls in European and American Markets

I. Official Verdict: Zero Official Exports to the EU; Only Informal Circulation within Chinese Communities in the US

1. European Union (Germany, France, UK, Italy, etc.)

Huifa Food officially confirmed on December 12, 2025 that no products have been exported to EU countries, and this statement has been restated repeatedly on official interactive platforms.

Huifa Lobster Flavored Balls have not obtained EU food market access qualifications including BRC, IFS certification and EU factory registration number. There are no official customs declaration procedures, authorized distributors or formal bulk B2B supplies in the EU.

The so-called EU-related certification plans only stay in the preliminary planning stage of the Linxia production base and have not been officially implemented yet.

2. United States & Canada (North America)

There are no direct official exports nor designated formal importing agents.

A small quantity of goods are only available via informal channels in Chinese supermarkets, Asian grocery stores and cross-border e-commerce platforms such as Weee!, Yamibuy and T&T Supermarket:

Supply sources: re-exported goods from Southeast Asia, personal luggage shipments and small-batch grey customs clearance.

Sales scale: extremely limited, ranging from several hundred to several thousand jin per month, which does not belong to Huifa’s official overseas business.

Product status: mostly loose-packed goods without standard English product labels and North American Halal certification.

II. Overall Overseas Sales Layout (2025 Annual Report)

Huifa’s total overseas operating revenue achieved a year-on-year increase of 14.77%.

All overseas business revenue is fully concentrated in the following regions:

Southeast Asia (Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand): accounting for over 90%

Middle East (Saudi Arabia, UAE): accounting for 5% to 8%

Africa (Nigeria, Kenya): accounting for 1% to 2%

Europe and America: zero revenue recorded in official financial statements.

III. Purchase Availability in Europe and America

European Union: Unavailable through all formal commercial channels. Only smuggled goods, counterfeits and imitation products can be occasionally found in local Chinese stores with high purchase risks.

United States: Scattered stocks are available in Chinese community stores, yet these goods are not officiallysupplied by Huifa, with no after-sales guarantee and relatively high market prices.

IV. Core Reasons for Scarce Supplies in Europe and America

Strict EU market access thresholds: Fish paste products are required to obtain EU registered factory codes, BRC and IFS food safety certifications, standardized English labels and detailed allergen declarations, which Huifa has not yet applied for.

High North American market access costs: Quick-frozen meat balls need to complete FDA food registration,full ingredient traceability and standardized English labeling procedures, bringing high compliance costs and slim profit margins.

Corporate strategic priority: The company prioritizes markets along the Belt and Road Initiative, followed by Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Africa, while European and American markets rank last. Huifa mainly targets the Halal consumer market in Southeast Asia for its lobster flavored balls.

Conclusion

European Union: Zero official exports, impossible to purchase via formal channels.

United States: Only a tiny volume of informally circulated goods exist in Chinese communities without official business support.

Core overseas sales markets for Huifa Lobster Flavored Balls: Southeast Asia including Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore, as well as the Middle East region.
