With the world’s biggest population, China now accounts for a major part of global food consumption and a quarter of total global food production. During the past decades, China has been opening its food market for imports and at the same time, increasing its share on the global market as an exporter of agricultural products. So far, despite their huge agricultural potential, Eastern European countries have not been much involved in food trade with China. This paper empirically analyses the dynamics and structure of China - Eastern Europe agricultural trade in 2010-2018. The authors attempt to explore the opportunities for Eastern European countries to increase their role in China’s agricultural imports with value-added food products, as well as discuss how the countries of Eastern Europe and China may secure their food chains and ensure the sustainability of food supply by diversifying trade channels.
