New Cuban import Yulieski Gurriel was deactivated on Sunday due to muscle inflammation in his left side, the Yokohama BayStars announced on Sunday.
The 30-year-old slugging infielder, who is suffering from inflammation in his left oblique muscles, was scratched from a July 16 game against the Carp in Hiroshima due to discomfort and examined three days later in Tokyo.
BayStars skipper Kiyoshi Nakahata expressed doubt that Gurriel will be fit soon enough to play as soon as rules make him eligible to rejoin the active roster.
"(To get him back in the minimum of) 10 days will be tough. I wonder how long it will take," Nakahata said.
Gurriel, who has been receiving treatment while working out at the team's Eastern League training base in Yokosuka, Kanagawa Prefecture, sounded positive.
"It's not a big injury," he said. "I want to complete my treatment as soon as possible and become fit again."
Easing the pain of Gurriel's loss is the return of slugging first baseman Tony Blanco, who has missed roughly two months this season due to strained thigh muscles in his left leg, is expected to return to the lineup on Monday.

This past week has been a whirlwind. We shot the photos for my cookbook! The photographer and my agent came out to Arizona so I could prepare all the ice cream sandwiches ahead of time and not attempt to transport them anywhere to shoot. We actually bought a freezer unit so I could store the copious amounts of ice cream, cookies, and sandwiches we were shooting. Day 1 went great, we got some amazing photos that I'm so excited for you to see.
Then Day 2 happened. A few hours into shooting we noticed everything was just melting into a sad mess. It turns out the air conditioning in my house broke. In the middle of summer in Arizona. While shooting photos of ice cream. It was almost funny how totally messed up the whole situation was. Thankfully by 5pm repairmen were able to fix the air conditioner but we lost a day of shooting. The next and final day of the shoot was a long one, trying to get everything done that we had missed out on due to the air conditioning catastrophe. Miraculously we still ended up with some gorgeous photos. I seriously cannot wait to get the book in my hands and see all this hard work in person.
Right now what I'm most excited about is getting back to normal life. The past month all my time has been dedicated to preparing ice cream sandwiches and completing my two outrageously demanding summer classes. Why I decided to take summer classes is a mystery to me. But my classes are over (I got A's! Yay!) and the photoshoot is over. Time to focus on finishing up the manuscript for my book and making recipes, taking photos, and writing posts for the blog!

Texture: The chicken is juicy and tender.
Ease: Easy enough for a weeknight meal.
Appearance: The grill marks on the chicken and the sticky, thick sauce are simply mouthwatering.

Would I make this again? Definitely!
How to make Brown Sugar & Citrus Grilled Chicken Breasts
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon orange marmalade
1 heaping teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon Sriracha, or other hot sauce
2 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Combine butter, brown sugar, lemon juice, marmalade, mustard, paprika, and Sriracha in a small saucepan. Bring mixture to a simmer and cook until sugar is dissolved and mixture has thickened. Transfer half the sauce to a small bowl for basting and keep remaining sauce warm over low heat until ready to serve.
Meanwhile, prepare the grill for direct cooking over medium heat (350°-450°F).
Season chicken breasts to taste with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken, smooth side down first, covered over direct medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Flip chicken and, using a basting brush, brush chicken with some of the reserved sauce. Cover and grill for another 4 to 6 minutes. Flip chicken again, brush with sauce, cover, and grill for another 2 to 3 minutes or until chicken registers an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove chicken to a platter and brush with additional reserved sauce. Cover loosely with foil and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm with remaining sauce in saucepan.

This looks absolutely delicious!!! Definitely making this soon 😀
This looks mouth-watering! Can't wait to try…love grilling season!
that looks fabulous! mmM!
I used chili paste instead of sriracha and added a little bit of white whine to thin it out. It tasted just like Thai La Ong Thai restaurant in Sydney, Australia.
I didn't have any smoked paprika but the sauce and the chicken still turned out great. Boyfriend approved as well 🙂
this was awesome. def will make it more often. i didnt have the Sriracha paste nor could i find it:( i just substituted it with my "house of tsang" szuchuan spicy stir fry sauce. came out really good. unique. thank you!
oh so very flavorful. very easy to prepare. I used a peach pepper marmalade …
Great for company dinner…..thanks….
This tasted so good!! will definitely make this again!! :)))

Man Cited For Pushing Stroller While Intoxicated
A man was cited after he was seen pushing his 5-month-old daughter in a stroller while allegedly intoxicated Wednesday afternoon.
According to police reports, Alex Cohen was swaying and slurring his speech while talking to police.
Linda Hunsicker called authorities Cohen staggering while walking the stroller along Mount Pleasant Avenue.
"It's very disappointing that a parent would actually do that," said Hunsicker.
She was driving home from work when she spotted Cohen.
"He had the stroller in his left hand and the dog attached. He was talking on his cell phone and as he turned, the stroller started tipping," she said. "The stroller started going up onto the hill and then he brought it back down and then I kept watching him. He kept staggering down through the street and I thought, I better call the police."
Police caught up with him on Wyandotte Street.
Police said that Cohen, 26, eventually admitted to drinking. Officers found two open mason jars of beer underneath the stroller.
According to the police report, Cohen's daughter was showing signs of being cold and was not well covered, police said.
"The officer at the communication center, she's the one who called me and told me that they caught him and that they were calling Child Protective Services. And the only thing I could do, I say 'outstanding,'" added Hunsicker.
Cohen was cited for having an open container and for public intoxication.
No one answered at Cohen's address on Friday when WBNS-10TV attempted to get content.

If we do this, we'll provisionally credit your account within 10 business days for the amount you think is in error so that you'll have the use of the money during the investigative period. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and we don't receive it within 10 business days of our request, we may not provisionally credit your account.

Also, if your statement shows transfers that you didn't make, tell us at once. If you don't tell us within 60 days after the statement was mailed to you, you may not get back any money you lost after 60 days if we can prove that we could've stopped someone from taking the money if you'd told us in time. If a good reason (such as a long trip or hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we'll extend the time periods.
If you authorize someone else to use your CU OnLine™ or CU OnLine™ Mobile personal access code, you're responsible for all transactions which that person initiates at any time, even if the amount of the transaction or number of transactions exceeds what you authorized.
Incomplete Transfer of Funds: If we don't complete a transfer to or from your account on time or in the correct amount according to our agreement with you, we'll be liable for your losses and damages. However, there are some exceptions. We'll not be liable, for instance:
- If, through no fault of ours, you don't have enough money in your account to make the transfer.
- If the transfer would go over the credit limit on your overdraft line.
- If the system wasn't working properly and you knew about the breakdown when you started the transfer.
- If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent the transfer, despite reasonable precautions that we've taken.
- There may be other exceptions stated in our agreement with you.

SearchingforBigfoot.com owner Tom Biscardi paid an "undisclosed sum" to Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer, the two Georgia men who say they found the body, for their frozen corpse and the privilege of trotting them out in front of TV cameras.Georgia Bigfoot hoax (FoxNews, thanks, Loren Coleman! Thanks Rob Beschizza for the image!)
At the same time, Biscardi sent self-described "Sasquatch detective" Steve Kulls back to Georgia to check out the body.
Kulls, it's safe to say, was severely disappointed.
The upshot? The real Bigfoot, once found, is now missing. So are Whitton, Dyer and Biscardi's money.
Previously on BB:
• Bigfoot press conference a bust
• Bigfoot discovery press conference on Friday (HOAX?)

When you become a parent you start to measure your life in two ways, BC and AC; before children, and after children. When I would ski BC, it was up early, on the slopes early, ski hard and fast, maybe have lunch, definitely apres, sometimes into the evening. In the present AC, it's up early, on the slopes late, ski moderately, definitely have lunch, definitely apres, home early in the evening.
I like skiing in the AC because the fun and thrills that I found skiing BC are replaced with different ones AC. I see terrain in a different way, I spend more time in the trees on fun whoopie-doo trails, and I hear myself say things I never thought I would. For example, on a recent family ski outing I caught the following sentences coming out of my mouth. Most of these were delivered at top volume.
Take your skis off in the parking lot!
Don't hit the cars with your poles!
Don't eat your neck gator!
It's not "smelly" skiing, it's teleskiing.
Stop trying to copy that ski ballet person.
I don't know how many snowcats they have here.
Why didn't you tell me you had to go to the bathroom, we were just in the lodge?
Why are you putting snow on top of your head?
Sure, I can ski "fancy".
I don't know what that smell is.
Don't walk around the parking lot in your socks!
Yes three runs is enough for an apres treat.

Saturday, Feb. 16, 2013 1:45 p.m. to 1:45 p.m.
Location: 'Freezin' for a Reason' Polar Dip' Feb 16 at Camp CaPella, 8 Pearl Point Road, Dedham, Maine
For more information: Dana Mosher; 843-5104; campcapella.org
We're Back!
'Freezin' for a Reason' Polar Dip Saturday Feb 16 at Camp CaPella
Still Somehow Inevitable Despite One-Week Delay
Proceeds to Benefit Camp Sunshine and Camp CaPella
DEDHAM, February 11 – Despite the snowstorm delay, brazenly brave human beings once more face the daunting prospect of plunging through a big hole in the ice on Phillips Lake in Dedham – home of Camp CaPella – at the annual "Freezin' for a Reason" Polar Dip on Saturday, February 16 beginning at 1:00 p.m.
Plunging volunteers may continue raising funds (at least $100 per plunger required) from those wishing to sponsor these foolhardy Polar Dips that are quickly followed by Solar Dips into hot tubs (provided by Sandollar Spa & Pool for this event). All contributions from plungers, visitors and sponsors will be donated either to Camp Sunshine (for children with life-threatening illnesses and their families) or Camp CaPella (for children and adults with physical and developmental disabilities).
The Dedham Fire Department Cold Water Rescue Team will be onsite and ready to respond if needed. Hot drinks and snacks will be available to plungers for free and to spectators by donations.
Registration will begin at noon, with plunges beginning at 1:00 p.m. All parking (except for handicapped persons and reporters) will be at the Lucerne Inn and Dedham School with shuttle buses running back and forth starting at 11:30 a.m.
To start raising funds for Camp Sunshine, form or join a team, and donate online, one can visit http://www.crowdrise.com/BangorPolarDip. To begin the process for Camp CaPella, one can visit http://campcapella.org/2013-polar-plunge-3/.
On Saturday news media only may park in the Camp CaPella parking lot. Reporters and news crews should plan to set up by 12:30 p.m. The Polar Dip will begin at 1:00 p.m. But dippers will only stay freezin' for a reason for a few seconds, then jump out and into a hot tub. So dippers may be done by 2:00 p.m. or soon after.

A Tough News Day
When I first got the text message in May to call a friend that needed to tell me something, a knot tied in my stomach. We really only communicated about Erica, so to get a disconcerting text like this from a friend like her couldn't have been good. As you probably guessed, it wasn't.
Lucky for me, I've never dealt with death before. My grandmother and two grandfathers that have passed away in my lifetime both did so when I was too young to really understand what went on, and even though I still wish I could have had a moment with my one of my granddads watching me play in a junior golf tournament because it would have made them proud, I was never on much of a personal level with either of them.
People have come to me about death, sure. My ex-girlfriend had a close grandparent pass when we dated, and I consoled her as best I could. I wasn't sure exactly what to do, similar to a single man giving marriage advice, but I tried my best with what I knew of it or read about it. I was there, more or less, to just listen.
I remember reading that text message and then calling to hear the inevitable. Erica wasn't alive anymore. My mind raced like it does when you get shitty news like this, especially about someone so young. Of course the verdict that came out on Monday crossed my mind at least once. I had a two hour drive ahead of me, without a passenger to keep my mind at bay.
I never wanted to believe it was the case, but it is, and it sucks. Erica was an incredible girl who you've heard me mention numerous times over the last three months. You might be sick of reading about what I'm thinking, and I apologize for wasting your time with my thoughts, but I figured it was better to get them out there than to hold them in.
What does this verdict change in my mind about Erica? Not a thing. Not a goddamn thing. She was a beautiful person and will continue to be a beautiful person that I was lucky to be friends with. She struggled with personal problems like we all do, and made a decision that, unfortunately for us all, you can't take back.
I can speak for us all, friends, family, whomever, when I say that in five years or 10 years or whatever, we won't be thinking of what she did to herself that horrible May night, but about the memories we had with her throughout the years. The laughs and smiles and birdies and cocktails. The moments we all got to hang with her were the best times we could have with a gal, and she will forever be with us in some way or another.
It's tough to hear, that's for sure, but it doesn't change who Erica Blasberg was to me. I hope it doesn't change who she was for you, either.

Shane, I couldn't have said it any better. I met Erica a few times and she couldn't have been more gracious. Its hard to fathom that this happened.

Erica will be missed by all and this doesn't change who she was-a great person. I was lucky enough to interview and hang out with her for a day in 2009 and will always remember her for her great personality and smile. That's how I'll remember Erica.

Hope you aren't taking the news too hard. I've got a few friends that have been on the edge of suicide before, but fortunately they realized that it wasn't the best answer. I can't imagine how I'd feel if they'd gone through with it as Erica did.
Fuck the fact that she was a pro golfer. It does't matter at all in this situation (although I'd never have found out about Erica otherwise). The most important thing is that you valued her as a friend, and ultimately you still do.
I hope you and Erica's other loved ones can find some peace in that. I know you might not, but it's all that you can do at this point. Regards, PF

I really have trouble believing that Erica wanted, even for a moment, to die.
The fact that nothing can bring her back will probably allow suicide to remain the official cause of death, but I feel it does her a grave disservice.
I hope people can see beyond the tabloid headlines to a girl who loved and cherished life. Your stories definitely helped to bring that out.

Part of the fun of watching Michael and Peter Spierig's 2010 film Daybreakers was picking out the Brisbane landmarks behind Hollywood stars Ethan Hawke and Willem Dafoe.
Sadly the Spierig brothers' third film, Predestination won't be shot in Brisbane when production begins early in 2013.
This time it will be Melbourne audiences picking out Victorian landmarks in the background as Hawke once again pairs up with the Brisbane directing team. But don't despair, the forthcoming Predestination still holds much promise.
Based on Robert A Heinlein's short story All You Zombies, audiences may be anticipating a zombie flick in the vein of their acclaimed debut Undead.
But in truth the source material is more a grab bag of time travel, sci-fi and... hermaphrodites.
Zombies and vampires are so passé.
Cinema death, DVD resurrection
Ethan Hawke sinks his teeth into vampire movies

Porsche Podiums At Historic Indianapolis Motor Speedway
Posted by: newsla on Jul 26, 2014 - 06:27 AM
Porsche Podiums At Historic Indianapolis Motor Speedway
Porsche North America took advantage of the high-speed layout of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course to capture a podium finish in the Brickyard Grand Prix today. The No. 912 Porsche North America Porsche 911 RSR finished in third-place in the highly competitive GT Le Mans class of the TUDOR United SportsCar Championship. The team used all of its assets, including several early caution periods and expert pit work, to earn the its highest finish since winning the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring in March.
Porsche 911 RSR
The long, high-speed straightaways which have become so ingrained in the consciousness of the public through the Indianapolis 500, proved an equally good match to the Porsche 911 RSR. With an aerodynamic setup developed for the faster tracks of the World Endurance Championship, which leaves the cars at a disadvantage on racecourses requiring high downforce â such as the most recent rounds of Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, Watkins Glen International and Canadian Tire Motorsports Park â The Brickyardâs mixture of oval and infield road course provided the Porsche a respite under its current aero setup. All three of the Porsche 911 RSRs entered in the race took full advantage of this, challenging for top-five positions during the race.
The No. 912 Porsche North America Porsche 911 RSR shared by American Patrick Long (Playa del Rey, California) and Michael Christensen (Denmark) maximized the potential of the car finishing third behind the race-winning No. 93 Dodge Viper SRT. The team played its pit strategy to precision using early race caution periods to move the production car-based racer into striking distance of second-place late in the event.
The race was the most bittersweet for the No. 911 Porsche North America Porsche 911 RSR. The entry driven by Richard Lietz (Austria) and Nick Tandy (Great Britain) suffered an engine failure when in the lead of the GTLM class. Tandy had two strong restarts to move from sixth to second, and then into the lead early in the second hour of the race. However, telemetry recognized an engine issue and the team retired the car with 55 minutes remaining in the two-hour, 45-minute race.
The No. 17 Team Falken Tire Porsche 911 RSR of Wolf Henzler (Germany) and Bryan Sellers (Braselton, Georgia) ran well before an extended stop to make repairs. After running in the top-five, the only customer team in North America to race Porscheâs most advanced 911 finished ninth.
Porsche 911 GT America
The two Alex Job Racing Porsche 911 GT America racecars, the No. 22 entry driven by Leh Keen (Atlanta) and Cooper MacNeil (Hinsdale, Illinois) and the No. 23 Porsche of Mario Farnbacher (Germany) and Ian James (Phoenix) were fifth and sixth respectively. The No. 22 WeatherTech machine was the highest finishing Porsche in the field. Patrick Dempsey (Malibu, California) and Andrew Davis (Athens, Georgia) finished ninth in GTD in their Dempsey Racing Porsche 911 GT America. Dempsey drove the first stint, and brought the car into the pits in a top five position, one of his best stints of the year.
From one iconic American racecourse to another, the Porsche factory and customer teams now travel to Road America for round eight of the 12-race championship. The Road Race Showcase in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin will take place on August 10.
Owen Hayes, Director of Operations, Porsche Motorsport North America: âWe are very happy to be back on the podium. We would like to be higher but we will keep on fighting. It is very bittersweet. We had a high-speed, low downforce track and, on those types of track, we tend to find our legs. We had a lot of luck today. The misfortune of others was our luck. There was a lot of damage to other cars and who would have thought that we could have gone from sixth to second on the second restart? Thatâs incredible. The Indy gods were smiling on us a little there.â
Patrick Long, No. 912 Porsche North America Porsche 911 RSR: âThe last few races have been ones to forget and this is the best way to do that. Iâve had wins that didnât feel this good. It is a short celebration and then heads down for Road America. The team showed tremendous persistence and they had great pit stops. We executed today. We made no mistakes and that is reminiscent of Sebring which was the last time we were up on the podium. I hope we build off of this.â
Michael Christensen, No. 912 Porsche North America Porsche 911 RSR: âThe car was quite good. The first stint was mostly to get around the track with no damage. The restarts were taking place quite early on the straights so we had to stay tight but the biggest challenge was traffic. It is a relief to get back on the podium for the first time since Sebring. We have been working very hard so to be back on the podium is the only thing I think of.â
Nick Tandy, No. 911 Porsche North America Porsche 911 RSR: âThe first start the car was very good. It was consistently fast and predictable over the course of a stint. We made a lot of ground in traffic and on the start, and restarts. The race was going perfectly. We had a great pit stop, we gained positions and time. Then we recognized an engine issue and we could not continue.â
Richard Lietz, No. 911 Porsche North America Porsche 911 RSR: âThis track suits our car perfectly. So, it was known early we would have a good car here. We do not have enough downforce, which means we do not have a lot of drag so we are quick on the straight. Because we do not have big downforce we are not so good on quick corners. This track only has slow corners apart from the last corner which is easy flat. So, this track is very good for our car. We showed in the race that we had the pace to be on the podium here. It is a little frustrating for us but at least one Porsche is on the podium.â
Leh Keen, No. 22 Alex Job Racing Porsche 911 GT America: âIt was a wild race, and we had a good race car today. We ended up being the highest finishing Porsche in GTD, but the brakes were totally gone there at the end. I was pushing the pedal all the way down to the floor. I feel like we accomplished a lot today because it was a struggle to bring the car home. The crew did an awesome job in the pits. The strategy was right on point to get us to the front. We had a pretty good day considering what we had at the end. Cooper had a really good opening stint and we got another top five today.â
Cooper MacNeil, No. 22 Alex Job Racing Porsche 911 GT America: âAt the start everyone was driving like it was the last lap of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. It was pretty crazy. We had a mechanical issue at the end with the brakes. Leh did a great job to keep it in the top five at the finish and kept some fast drivers behind him, it was a good points day. We came here third in points and are leaving in second, so not too bad. I am really looking forward to Road America.â

Australians travelling in Thailand, Indonesia and Italy are the most likely to run into financial strife and call on taxpayers at home to bail them out – but some loans are never repaid, new data shows.
The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade has called on Australians travelling and living overseas to take personal responsibility for their welfare – including getting the right travel insurance – rather than calling on the public purse for a loan.
In the largest three loans in recent years, the department forked out $11,275, $14,110, and $14,498 for medical repatriations, according to data supplied to Fairfax Media.
Australians in financial grief overseas can also access subsistence loans of about $150 to tide them over until they receive funds from home, money to replace a missing passport or loans for medical assistance.
The department would not provide details of individual cases for privacy reasons.
It says in principle, people whose financial difficulty has arisen "from their own mismanagement or irresponsibility are not entitled to financial assistance, even if they are destitute and have no means of support".
But it concedes there is often "no alternative to making a loan to these people" and consular officers should guard against the possibility that the loans are used merely to extend someone's overseas holiday.
In 2014 a National Commission of Audit report found while so-called "traveller emergency loans" were a relatively small expense, the recovery rate was only about 70 per cent.
However the department said new cost recovery measures meant this rate had since risen to 93 per cent. Loan recipients who refuse to pay back the money can have their passport cancelled or refused.
Of the $2.3 million in traveller loans provided over the past decade, it has written off $254,704.
Some 211 Australian travellers received emergency loans last financial year totalling $145,000.
This is a drop from the 365 travellers issued loans three years prior, costing $218,000.
A department spokeswoman said over the past three years, Australian travellers in Thailand were most in need of emergency loans, followed by Indonesia and Italy. This excludes prisoner loans, which help those in foreign jails buy food, medicine, bedding, clothes and soap.
She said the department would not pay for fines, legal bills or medical services, or post bail.
"[The department] encourages clients to be self-reliant – financial assistance is only available as a last resort," she said, adding the number of loans has steadily fallen in recent years, as travellers found other ways of accessing emergency funds, including via ATMs and internet-based funds transfers.
"It is also far easier now than a decade ago for travellers to contact friends and family directly, to request help if they run into financial difficulties overseas," she said.

Food and Beverage
Long one of the world's culinary capitals, Hong Kong is fast becoming a centre for the wine trade too, since the Government's 2008 decision to abolish duty on wine's import. Unbeatable logistics plus the high number of business and leisure visitors it receives each year make Hong Kong a compelling proposition for companies expanding in the food and beverage sector.
The global demand for wine is shifting from traditional wine consumption markets, like Europe and the US, to Asia. Strong economic growth, increased prosperity and changes in lifestyle have led to a dramatic increase in demand for wine, particularly in Mainland China.
The Hong Kong Government's decision to cut duty on wine and beer to zero in February 2008 has propelled Hong Kong into the position of Asia's wine hub. All duty-related administration has been eliminated, making the import and export of wines hassle-free. In 2010, Hong Kong overtook New York to become the world's largest wine auction centre.
Currently, the Asian wine market represents just a few percent of global wine consumption. This is forecast to double the current amount, and jump to US$27 billion by 2017, signalling massive potential for investors.
If you are involved in the wine trade, there is no better time to invest in Hong Kong. For valuable information and support, contact InvestHK's Tourism & Hospitality team.
Restaurants and Bars
Hong Kong's restaurant and bar scene is thriving. The city has 3 of the World's 100 Best Restaurants 2015, as compiled by Restaurant magazine, more than any other city in Asia. With a local population that loves to dine out and high levels of business entertainment, there is a buoyant market for restaurants at every price point. The launch of the Hong Kong and Macau Michelin Guide has also strengthened Hong Kong's attraction as a culinary destination. A number of world-class industry events are also hosted in Hong Kong, for example Wine & Dine Festival and Vinexpo.
InvestHK's Tourism & Hospitality team can provide advice and practical support to companies setting up in Hong Kong. Contact us to find out more.
Food Trading and Distribution
Renowned as the culinary capital of Asia, Hong Kong boasts around 8,500 restaurants in the city. With dining out a regular pastime for local residents and a growing number of international visitors, there is no better place than Hong Kong to showcase and develop your exciting food and beverage concept.
Hong Kong's high number of international and Mainland Chinese visitors means excellent brand exposure. Its combination of a skilled workforce, strong intellectual property protection and pro-business regulation makes it the ideal launchpad for brands targeting the Chinese and Asian markets.
The best way to find out about food trading and distribution opportunities in Hong Kong is to contact InvestHK's Tourism & Hospitality team.
