History
Synear traces its corporate history to the establishment of 思念食品有限公司 in July 1997. The company was created around the production and sale of Chinese convenience foods, with frozen dumplings and related staple products forming the foundation of its offering. From this base, it expanded into a broader portfolio covering tangyuan, pastries, zongzi, wontons, and snack foods. The company’s development reflects the growth of China’s modern frozen-food sector. Products that had traditionally required substantial preparation at home could increasingly be manufactured at scale, distributed through cold-chain systems, and prepared conveniently by consumers. Synear’s assortment is closely connected to this transition: dumplings and tangyuan remain culturally familiar foods, while frozen formats make them available for ordinary meals as well as holiday occasions. Over time, Synear built out manufacturing and logistics capabilities to support national distribution. The company reports five domestic production bases, one overseas production base, multiple modern frozen and ambient-temperature production lines, and several tens of thousands of tonnes of low-temperature cold-storage capacity. It also reports annual production capacity of more than 700,000 tonnes and a workforce exceeding 10,000 people. Because the official source does not specify the dates to which these operating figures apply, they should be treated as company-reported scale indicators rather than as a dated financial or production series. The product portfolio has expanded to more than 500 varieties across six principal categories: dumplings, tangyuan, pastries, zongzi, wontons, and leisure or snack foods. This breadth enables the brand to address several consumption occasions, including daily family meals, quick preparation at home, seasonal festivals, and food-service or retail requirements. The company’s public positioning emphasizes product research and development, manufacturing, and sales rather than a single narrowly defined specialty. Synear’s marketing network covers China, where its principal products have achieved broad distribution. The company also reports international reach in nearly 20 countries and more than 70 regions, naming the United States, the United Kingdom, Singapore, Australia, Hong Kong, and Macau among its overseas markets. This suggests an international strategy focused on carrying Chinese staple foods to expatriate, Asian, and other consumers, although the available source does not provide detailed sales figures or country-level market shares. The supplied material also describes Synear as a large professional frozen-food enterprise and reports a domestic market share of 27 percent for its principal products. No date, methodology, product definition, or independent source is provided for that figure, so it should not be interpreted as a current total-company market share. The brand has been associated in the supplied data with Shenzhen Stock Exchange ticker 002216.SZ. The current legal relationship between that ticker and the Synear brand, as well as the company’s present listed status, requires verification from authoritative corporate or exchange records. Similarly, the available reference material does not reliably identify a founder, current chief executive, parent group, or ultimate owner. This dossier therefore records those fields as unknown rather than repeating unsupported claims.

Products and positioning
Mass-market, family-oriented Chinese convenience food with a focus on frozen staples, festival foods, broad assortment, and domestic as well as selected international distribution.
Frozen staple foods
Frozen dumplings
Dumplings are one of Synear’s core product categories and a central part of the brand’s household-food identity. The range is designed to provide a convenient frozen format for a familiar Chinese staple, supporting both routine family meals and larger seasonal consumption occasions. The company presents dumplings as part of a portfolio containing many varieties rather than as a single standardized product.
Frozen festival foods
Tangyuan
Synear’s tangyuan range consists of frozen glutinous rice balls associated with Chinese family meals and traditional festivals. Frozen distribution makes the products easier to store and prepare while retaining their role as a culturally recognizable food. The available source confirms tangyuan as a major category but does not provide a complete flavor, filling, or sub-brand listing.
Frozen and prepared foods
Pastries and dim sum
This category covers Synear’s frozen pastry and dim sum-style offerings. It broadens the brand beyond dumplings and tangyuan into convenient prepared foods that can be served at meals or as snacks. Public source material identifies the category but does not enumerate all formats or provide product-level launch dates.
Frozen festival foods
Zongzi
Zongzi are included in Synear’s six-category portfolio and connect the brand with a traditional Chinese festival food. The category allows the company to participate in seasonal demand while using its frozen-food manufacturing and distribution capabilities. Detailed varieties and packaging formats are not specified in the available reference.
Frozen staple foods
Wontons
Wontons form another principal category in Synear’s range of frozen Chinese foods. They extend the company’s offering within filled dough-based staples and provide a convenient preparation option for household meals. The reference material does not identify individual wonton products or their launch chronology.
Packaged snacks
Leisure and snack foods
Synear identifies leisure or snack foods as its sixth principal category. This line indicates an expansion beyond conventional frozen meal staples into snack-oriented consumption occasions. The available official description does not provide a detailed product list, formulation information, or separate sub-brand architecture.
