LONDON, Nov. 14, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- On 1 July, 2016, the Regulations on Registration and Filing of Health Food came into effect, which may save time and expenses for enterprises when they apply for Health Food Approval Certificate. Meanwhile, more and more Chinese enterprises, like CSPC and By-health, are looking for opportunities to acquire foreign healthcare enterprises, mainly due to the rapid growth of the domestic healthcare product market and Chinese consumers' preference for overseas brands.
The G20 Summit is to be held on 4 Sept., 2016 in Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province. The government will impose stricter environmental regulations to make the air quality meet standards during the conference. Vitamin producers in surrounding areas, like Zhejiang NHU, Zhejiang Medicine and Yifan Xinfu, are required to suspend production for more than 10 days. This may push up the market prices of many vitamins such as VA, VB1, VB5 and VD3 in the short run.
This month, a number of listed vitamin enterprises released their H1 financial pre-announcements.
Guangji Pharmaceutical predicted a financial turnaround thanks to rises in sales prices of its leading products, VB2 and VB6. In the past few years, the company has suffered fluctuating performances, as a result of its lack of diversity in product structure.
Northeast Pharmaceutical reported to turn losses into profits in its corrected H1 financial pre-announcement, due to the rises in sales prices of some APIs and sales volumes of some pharmaceutical preparations. However, the low price of its leading product, VC, may continue put it under heavy business pressure.
Garden Biochemical predicted its net profit to realize large growth, as its lanoline integrated use project has been put into production and the corresponding sales have started.
High production concentration and tight supply boost the market prices of vitamins, like VA, VB1, VB2, VB5 and VE. On the contrary, those of VB3 and VC keep low, affected by the excess production capacity and oversupply. Given the stricter domestic environmental policies than before and serious homogenization in APIs, Chinese vitamin producers are confronted with great challenges at present.The G20 Summit is to be held on 4 Sept., 2016 in Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province, for which vitamin producers in surrounding areas are required to suspend production for at least half a month. This is likely to tighten China's supply of vitamins and push up corresponding market prices in the short run.
