What’s Made in the USA and Selling Online in China?
Posted in: Uncategorized
Every month, the U.S. sells thousands of containers of pork to China much of it byproducts like stomachs, tongues and feet, which might wind up in soups in factory cafeterias. Nobody realizes where that meat comes from (and for the made-in-the-USA brand, that’s surely for the best.)
American meat exporters recently had an idea: Why not build the U.S. pork brand in China by selling more of the choice cuts? And why not do it with a splashy promotion via e-commerce giant Alibaba?
Last month, a week-long promotion opened the U.S. pork site on Alibaba’s Tmall, a giant online marketplace. A Hong Kong celebrity chef, as well as the chef of the U.S. ambassador to China, offered recipes. The site also featured cute pig cartoons and images of rippling American flags.

Yannick Bollor On the Positive Influence of the Family Business
Posted in: Uncategorized
Yannick Bollor, chairman and chief executive of Havas, talked about the benefits of being part of a family business during his first outing as an ad industry conference speaker since taking on the top job at the French communications group.
Speaking at Advertising Week Europe in London on Wednesday, the 34- year-old son of Vincent Bollor (former chairman of Havas and still the French communications group’s major shareholder with a 37% stake) admitted that the family connection means he doesn’t lose sleep worrying about keeping his job. “My leadership is not a problem,” he said, “I don’t question my future at Havas every morning, so I have the opportunity to be focused on the business problem instead.”
Yannick Bollor also talked about the history of the family company, Groupe Bollor, which was founded in France in 1822 when his great, great grandfather stole a paper manufacturing technique from the Chinese, and now has a wide range of business interests including electric car batteries. Mr. Bollor joined Groupe Bollor in 2006 and is still a director of the company. “It means we are focused on the long-term perspective,” he said, “and [Havas] clients like the approach of long-term partnerships. They know we are a family group and they are confident that we will treat them well.”
