Taiwan is the United States' eighth-largest export market for food and agricultural products, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture data.

As an increasing number of younger shoppers have grown accustomed to shopping online, the upward trend of the e-retail market expansion is anticipated to continue even after the pandemic. This report presents an overview of the e-retail food and beverage market and opportunities for U.S. exporters to Taiwan.
