These imports are believed to be sold at unfairly low prices and subsidized by the Chinese government. The Commission will make its preliminary findings by January 27, 2025. The investigation is in response to a petition filed by Cargill, Incorporated, and involves looking at whether U.S. industries are being significantly harmed or at risk of harm.

    The U.S. Department of Commerce is starting an investigation to determine if imports of erythritol from China are being subsidized by the Chinese government, which might be harming the U.S. erythritol industry. The investigation was initiated after a petition from Cargill, a U.S. producer of erythritol, claimed that Chinese producers were receiving unfair financial support. The period being investigated includes all of 2023, and Commerce is considering whether these imports are impacting the U.S. market by undercutting prices and decreasing domestic production. The International Trade Commission will also investigate to see if there is an actual material injury to the U.S. industry.

    Simple Explanation
