From April 16 to 18, a delegation from Shengyuan Pharmaceutical traveled to Weihai, Shandong Province, to attend the once-a-decade industry summit hosted by Baihe Co., Ltd. The summit, themed Scientific Nutrition, Intelligent Manufacturing for Health, brought together top experts, scholars and enterprise representatives from the global health industry to jointly discuss cutting-edge industry trends and future opportunities, injecting fresh momentum into the accelerated development of the big health ecosystem.
Multi-dimensional Insights: Decoding Hot Industry Trends
During the three-day summit, industry experts and practitioners systematically sorted out the future directions of the health industry through 8 main and sub-forums and nearly 60 special lectures. The conference clearly pointed out that the health industry is accelerating its transformation from "concept marketing" to "scientific verification", and accurate verification of ingredient efficacy has become the core competitiveness for enterprises to gain a foothold in the market. Against this trend, integrated innovation based on "medicinal and edible homology" has become another major highlight. The expansion of the Catalogue of Substances That Are Both Food and Chinese Medicinal Materials in Accordance with Traditions issued by the National Health Commission has provided policy support for the modern application of traditional tonic ingredients such as American ginseng. Meanwhile, the potential of segmented markets has been further highlighted. With "snack-style" and "humanized" development strategies, innovative products have quickly captured the minds of young consumers.
To gain an intuitive understanding of cutting-edge industry practices, the delegation from Shengyuan Environmental Protection visited Baihe Co., Ltd.’s intelligent factory. They observed the fully automatic oral liquid production lines, intelligent warehousing systems and standardized manufacturing workflows, which provided valuable references for the enterprise to explore green production and sustainable development.
Taking Scientific Research as the Core, Empowering a New Era of National Health
As a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shengyuan Environmental Protection (Stock Code: 300867.SZ), Shengyuan Pharmaceutical draws on the parent company’s strategic blueprint to deepen its presence in the big health sector. Committed to building a domestic brand for full-life-cycle health management, its development vision aligns perfectly with the industry trends unveiled at the summit.

At present, the brand’s products are marketed via diversified online and offline channels to gradually expand market reach, delivering a wide range of solutions to satisfy the nutritional needs of the general public.
"Medicinal and Edible Homology" has become a frequently mentioned keyword, which not only brings new growth drivers to the industry, but also creates opportunities for cross-industry breakthroughs for Shengyuan Pharmaceutical. Based on traditional Chinese medicine theories and combined with modern nutritional technologies, the company has launched Shengyuan Tree® American Ginseng & Taurine Oral Liquid, a health food. It adopts a scientific formula blending traditional nourishing ingredients such as American ginseng and Dendrobium officinale with taurine.
