Tips

culture
中粮集团 (short for 中国食品集团, abbreviated COFCO) is the largest state-owned food processor and one of the 'big four' global grain traders alongside Cargill, ADM, and Bunge. It owns consumer brands including cooking oil, 长城葡萄酒 wines, dairy (majority stake), and Mengniu-subsidiary Yashili. COFCO is listed as a Fortune Global 500 company and reports to SASAC.
register
Like other state-owned giants (石油 Sinopec, 石化, 中国移动), 中粮集团 is commonly abbreviated just in business news — the 集团 suffix is preserved in formal company references.
