This Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Report”) contains forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are contained principally in the sections entitled “Description of Business,” “Risk Factors,” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “seeks,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “projects,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are based on assumptions and subject to risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the factors described in the section captioned “Risk Factors” below. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.  Such statements may include, but are not limited to, information related to: anticipated operating results; relationships with our merchants and subscribers; consumer demand; financial resources and condition; changes in revenues; changes in profitability; changes in accounting treatment; cost of sales; selling, general and administrative expenses; interest expense; the ability to produce the liquidity or enter into agreements to acquire the capital necessary to continue our operations and take advantage of opportunities; legal proceedings and claims.

Also, forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this Report. You should read this Report and the documents that we reference and file or furnish as exhibits to this Report completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements publicly, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.
 
USE OF CERTAIN DEFINED TERMS

In this Report, the terms “Anpulo,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our,” refer to Anpulo Food, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiary Anpulo International Limited, a holding company formed in Hong Kong (“Anpulo HK”), Anpulo HK’s wholly-owned subsidiary Guangxiang Investment Consulting Co., Ltd., a limited liability company located in Shanghai, China (“Anpulo WFOE”), and our variable interest entity Laifeng Anpulo (Group) Food Development Co., Ltd. (“Anpulo Laifeng”).
 
INTRODUCTION

On October 30, 2013, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Anpulo HK in exchange for the issuance by us of an aggregate of 122,900,000 restricted ordinary shares to the shareholders of Anpulo HK. As a result of our share exchange with Anpulo HK, which is commonly referred to as a “reverse acquisition,” Anpulo HK became our wholly owned subsidiary and we assumed the business of Anpulo HK in processing, distributing and marketing pork and cured pork products in the People’s Republic of China, (the “PRC” or “China”).

From inception until we completed the reverse acquisition, we were organized as a vehicle to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation. From our inception on July 30, 2010 to October 30, 2013, we did not generate any revenue and we accumulated no significant assets as we explored a possible business combination. As such, we were deemed a “shell company” (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)).  In accordance with the requirements of Item 2.01(a)(f) of Form 8-K, this Report sets forth information that would be required if we were required to file a general form for registration of securities on Form 10 under the Exchange Act with respect to its common stock (which is the only class of the Company’s securities subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act upon consummation of the Securities Exchange).

Item 1.01   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On October 30, 2013, we entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with (i) Anpulo HK, (iii) the former stockholders of Anpulo HK, and (iii) our former shareholder, pursuant to which we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Anpulo HK in exchange for the issuance by us of an aggregate of 122,900,000 restricted ordinary shares to the shareholders of Anpulo HK, which shares constituted approximately 99.9% of our outstanding ordinary shares as of and immediately after the consummation of such share exchange (such transaction as the “Share Exchange”).  As a result of the share exchange, Anpulo HK became our wholly owned subsidiary and the former stockholders of Anpulo HK became our shareholders. The Share Exchange was treated as a recapitalization, with Anpulo HK as the accounting acquirer and the Company as the accounting acquiree.

The foregoing description of the Share Exchange and Exchange Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the Exchange Agreement filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-192006) filed on October 31, 2013, as subsequently amended, which is incorporated by reference herein.
 
Item 2.01   Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

The disclosure in Item 1.01 of this Report regarding the share exchange is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
 
FORM 10 DISCLOSURE

As disclosed elsewhere in this Report, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Anpulo HK on October 30, 2013 pursuant to the Share Exchange.  Item 2.01(f) of Form 8-K provides that if the Company was a shell company, other than a business combination related shell company (as those terms are defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) immediately before the Share Exchange, then the Company must disclose the information that would be required if the Company were filing a general form for registration of securities on Form 10 under the Exchange Act reflecting all classes of the Company’s securities subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 of the Exchange Act upon consummation of the Share Exchange.

The Company was deemed to be a shell company immediately before the Share Exchange. The disclosures in the registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-192006) filed on October 31, 2013, as subsequently amended, are incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. We are providing the information that we would be required to disclose on Form 10 under the Exchange Act if we were to file such form.  The information provided below relates to the combined Company after the acquisition of Anpulo HK, except that information relating to periods prior to the date of the Share Exchange, or unless otherwise specifically indicated.
 
Item 3.02   Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
 
The information contained in Item 1.01 above and under Item 15 in the registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-192006) filed on October 31, 2013, as subsequently amended, is incorporated herein by reference in response to this Item 3.02.
 
Item 4.01   Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
 
The information contained under Item 11 under the section titled “Changes In And Disagreements With Accountants On Accounting And Financial Disclosure” in the registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-192006) filed on October 31, 2013, as subsequently amended, is incorporated herein by reference in response to this Item 3.02.
