Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

On December 23, 2011, SkyPeople Fruit Juice, Inc. (the "Company") dismissed its independent registered public accounting firm, BDO Limited ("BDO"), from its engagement with the Company with immediate effect.

During the Company's two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the subsequent periods through the effective date of the dismissal of BDO, there were no disagreements on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope of procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of BDO, would have caused BDO to make reference thereto in its reports on the Company's consolidated financial statements for such periods.

There have been no reportable events as provided in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K during the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and any subsequent interim period, including the interim period up to and including the effective date of the dismissal of BDO.

The Company provided BDO with a copy of the disclosure set forth in this report on Form 8-K, and requested that BDO furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") stating whether they agree with the disclosures contained in this 8-K. A copy of BDO's letter to the SEC dated December 23, 2011 is filed hereto as Exhibit 16.1.

On December 24, 2011, the Company engaged Paritz & Company, P.A. ("Paritz") to serve as its independent registered public accounting firm with immediate effect. The decision to engage Paritz as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm was recommended by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors on December 23, 2011.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On December 30, 2011, the Company issued a press release announcing that Paritz was engaged as its independent registered public accounting firm effective December 24, 2011. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report on Form 8-K.
