Nature One Dairy and Sinopharm sign China infant formula deal
Under the agreement, Nature One Dairy will produce an all-Australian-made infant milk formula brand in its Australian manufacturing facility for Sinopharm for China.
Under China’s new policy on infant milk formula, which takes effect January 1, 2018, manufacturers are limited in the number of brands that can be registered in China. The new policy is part of the Chinese government’s measures to introduce and enforce strict food regulations to ensure food safety.
Nick Dimopoulos, CEO of Nature One Dairy, said the company’s aim is to produce a wide range of formulated products to meet the demands of different consumer groups.
Sinopharm produces the infant formula brand Happy Veve.
