Reproduced from People's Daily Online: From Quality System to R&D Innovation, the Industry Promotes the Development of the Health Industry http://finance.people.com.cn/n1/2026/0130/c1004-40656559.htm
People's Daily Online, Beijing, January 30 (Reporter Xu Weina) - Currently, the health food industry is entering a period of deep industrial adjustment. The extensive development model is gradually withdrawing from the market, and the development logic based on quality control and centered on research and innovation has become the industry consensus. The industry as a whole is accelerating towards standardization, refinement, and technological advancement.
It is understood that various internationally recognized quality management systems have become crucial platforms for health food enterprises to establish comprehensive quality control capabilities across the entire supply chain. This market shift has compelled industry players to further clarify their development paths. Taking Shanghe Company as an example, it recently announced the launch of a comprehensive upgrade plan for its quality control system.
According to the introduction, firstly, two core units, namely the "Innovative Nutrition Research Center" and the "Pure Label Laboratory", have been newly established to focus on cutting-edge health trends and product scientific research. Secondly, the company continues to expand its global industry-university-research cooperation network, establishing in-depth collaborations with multiple research institutions both domestically and internationally, and conducting forward-looking explorations in frontier industries such as natural product efficacy verification and nutrigenomics research.
Industry analysis suggests that the maturity of quality control in health food enterprises directly determines the boundaries and depth of research and development innovation. Only by laying a solid foundation in quality can the direction of innovation be clearer and the path to implementation smoother. This has become a common consensus for high-quality development in the industry.
"Scientific research and innovation are the core driving forces of our development," stated the R&D leader of Sunhope. This system upgrade is not only an optimization of the organizational structure, but also an innovation in R&D philosophy. "We will continue to deepen scientific exploration in the field of natural health, and provide consumers with scientifically healthy products with a more rigorous attitude, more open collaboration, and a more cutting-edge perspective."
Looking ahead to the future of the industry, scientific research innovation and quality control have become the "twin engines" driving the development of the health industry. As the level of industry standardization continues to improve, more enterprises will increase their R&D investment, using innovative systems to support the value enhancement of the entire industry chain. The industry believes that more enterprises will continue to demonstrate the scientific research strength and innovative wisdom of Chinese companies in the global transformation of the health industry.
