Hong Kong as an international city attracts sugar confectionery companies from all over the world to open a store in the city. With changes in lifestyle, Hong Kong consumers have a growing interest in and demand for top quality sugary products.
In China, the confectionery market has been growing promisingly and is expected to show an annual growth rate of 6% with revenue generated around RMB500 billion per year. The market is apparently huge enough to attract candy stores to invest in technology to bring innovation in the form of customer loyalty programs to attract more customers.
