SANTIAGO, Chile, June 25, 2021 (Newswire.com) - Chile has consolidated its reputation as a leading player in the global food industry in recent years. Domestic and export food sales combined totaled more than US$47 billion in 2019. As a result, food ranks second after mining in terms of importance to the Chilean economy. Chile exports close to US$20 billion annually and has one of the most important networks of trade agreements in the world, giving it access to favorable trading conditions with countries accounting for 88% of global GDP. Regionally it stands out for its logistics, innovation and food safety. Now the country is seeking to take a leap in quality into new sectors.

It is against this backdrop that InvestChile, Chile´s Foreign Investment Promotion Agency, has released its e-book, "Food Industry in Chile: Projection and Opportunities".
