Products from Dalian Gaishi Food Co., Ltd. (Gaishi Food, 836826.BJ) have been shipped from Dalian Port in northeast China's Liaoning Province to Japan's Yokohama Port as they recently received Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) certificates of origin, reported China Securities Journal on Tuesday.

This is the second time Gaishi Food receives RCEP certificates of origin, after a batch of the company's ready-made cold dishes were issued the first RCEP certificate in the Lvshun Customs administered area in January this year.

Gaishi Food has been making constant efforts in upgrading its products. The Tako Wasabi, one of the products that was issued the certificate this time, is actually a dish originated from Japan. The fact that Gaishi Food is now exporting this product to Japan is a reflection of positive feedback from the Japanese market, as well as a confirmation of the company's product quality, according to a representative from Gaishi Food.

Gaishi Food has been exploring both domestic and overseas markets in recent years, with more than 10,000 cooperating restaurants and trade ties established with countries and regions including the United States, Europe and Southeast Asia.

In the future, the company will continue to take advantage of the opportunities brought by the RCEP, engaging itself deeply in the dynamic development of industrial and supply chains to increase its competitiveness in the global market.
