Sino Green Land to Launch New China Green Foods Hub for Distribution of
Premium Foods Throughout China
NEW YORK and GUANGZHOU, China, Nov. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Sino Green
Land Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: SGLA), a leading distributor of high-end
fruits and vegetables in China, today announced the signing of a cooperative
agreement securing support from the Green Foods Development Center, which is
sponsored by Ministry of Agriculture, and approval from the municipal
government of Guangzhou, to construct a distribution center for green foods
covering 20 thousand square meters of floor space in Guangzhou, China. This
new distribution center, the China Green Foods Hub, is expected to begin
operating in the second half of 2010 and will be open to wholesalers,
retailers, and large corporate customers.
Mr. Anson Fong, Chairman, stated, "The green foods trend in China has been
growing rapidly over the past few years as more consumers seek out healthier
and more environmentally friendly foods. Price points on these types of food
are 20%-30% higher than conventional produce and the list of such foods now
totals over 17,000. As the Chinese economy continues to experience growth,
there is an expanding middle class interested in improving the quality of
their diets. It is for this reason that green foods have gained such
popularity in recent years and sales of these products have increased at a
compound annual growth rate of over 40% for the past five years."
Mr. Fong concluded, "We believe that Sino Green Land is in a unique position
to capitalize on this trend, especially given the fact that we are a council
member of the China Green Food Association, plus the strong support we have
received from Green Foods Development Center. Through our new China Green
Foods Hub, we will be able to procure green foods from all over China and
distribute green foods to the Pear River Delta, Hong Kong and Macao through
both wholesale and retail channels. The hub, itself, will be a shopping
experience and will showcase fine quality produce and other food items in a
way that will appeal to our customers. We already have a strong wholesale
distribution network in place as well as patented and efficient production
line processes, so we are in an ideal position to take on this exciting new
extension of our business."
