Sino-Agri Leading International Enters Into a New Stage of Development
Sino-Agri Leading Biosciences Co., Ltd., a leading enterprise under the All-China Federation of Supply and Marketing Cooperatives (China CO-OP), is specialized in distribution of crop protection products and is the only listed company in this field under China CO-OP. Since its establishment, thanks to the three strategies of ” Green Sustainable Development, Technology R&D Oriented, Solution Service Supporting,” the company has maintained a strong momentum for development with a ever-growing product and service system, and has established a sales network and a “one-stop” crop protection supply platform at home and abroad. The annual revenue of Sino-Agri Leading for 2022 exceeded RMB 10 billion, making it a strong industry leader.
Sino-Agri Leading International’s rebranding event — “New Platform, New Horizon” — showcased its commitment to “being the facilitator of the global efforts in crop protection”.
Adhering to the original aspiration of “China origin, global vision,” Sino-Agri Leading set up the International Business Segment (Sino-Agri Leading International) in 2011 and started to explore global expansion. In 2014, Sino-Agri (Shanghai) Leading Biosciences Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Sino-Agri Shanghai”) was established in Shanghai. In 2019, in response to the increasing demand for quality crop protection products and professional services in overseas markets, Sino-Agri Leading joined hands with Nanjing Red Sun Co., Ltd. to found a new platform company focused on building a cross-border supply chain for green crop protection products, which gave strong momentum to the development of Sino-Agri Leading International.
After more than a decade of development, Sino-Agri Leading International has gained a prominent competitive edge. In terms of products, it now has nearly 260 kinds of high-quality products under three major categories, including herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides. The company has also formed an early market access advantage with nearly 1,500 pesticide product registrations approved worldwide. Moreover, Sino-Agri Leading International has established long-term partnership with more than 500 customers worldwide, with its products reaching over 90 countries and regions. Customer service-wise, the company has built pesticide application R&D centers, pesticide processing and distribution bases, and a technical service team for plant protection to provide its partners with services such as formulation R&D, quality control, distribution and processing, and technical promotion.
At present, with Sino-Agri Shanghai as the main operating entity, Sino-Agri Leading International has set up Sino-Agri Red Sun, and seven overseas subsidiaries in Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Dominican Republic, Singapore, and Brazil. Over the past three years, Sino-Agri Leading International has made great strides forward with fast-growing exports, marking a new stage of development.
Rebranded Sino-Agri Leading International Shoulders the New Mission of the Industry
At the new starting point of 2023, after reflecting on its core competitiveness and development positioning, Sino-Agri Leading International decided to rebrand itself and unveiled the new brand concept of “Agriculture for All” and a new brand logo at the launch event, in order to better serve and integrate into a new development pattern whereby domestic and foreign markets can boost each other, with the domestic market as the mainstay.
Change is needed to prepare for the future. The new logo of Sino-Agri Leading International was inverted on the basis of the old one, each letter was added with rounded corners, and multi-dimensional elastic changes were made to the auxiliary graphics, conveying the overall concept of inclusiveness, openness and equality. The new logo is sending the message that Sino-Agri Leading International will meet the changes and challenges of the market with a more open mind, engage in dialogues with every partner based on equality and openness, and promote high-quality products and services to all corners of the world.
The concept “Agriculture for All” draws inspiration from the classic Chinese poem “Peach Blossoms Beam – Songs Collected South of the Capital” in “The Book of Songs”, which literally means that the crops are growing well, and by extension, things are prosperous and promising. By incorporating the Chinese name of Sino-Agri Leading, the new brand concept of Sino-Agri Leading International aims to inherit the traditional Chinese farming civilization and carry on the company gene of “service for agriculture”.
The company will go beyond the pursuit of commercial interests, from serving Chinese farmers to serving farmers around the world, and promoting the sustainable agriculture development in all regions of the world with balance of economy and environment for the present and the future always in mind. This is the original aspiration of the new brand vision of Sino-Agri Leading International. Guided by the new vision, the company will be bolder and more determined to be there for and serve more farmers around the world going forward.
The company is committed to serving China, its partners, and the world. Sino-Agri Leading International advocates dialogue, co-existence featuring diversity, supporting and empowering the development of small and medium-sized enterprises, and maintaining the vitality of the industry. At the national level, the company shoulders the responsibility of building a shared global future with inclusive agriculture; at the industry level, it extends the company gene of “service for agriculture” to the international market; at the business level, it establishes long-term win-win partnerships along the supply chain.
While staying true to its original aspiration is necessary, the company also has a duty to move forward with a new brand. The rebranding means that Sino-Agri Leading International has a broader global vision and will take up the new mission of the industry to be the the facilitator of the global efforts in crop protection and the contributor of the industry advancement.
