American Vanguard Corp. 宣布，其国际子公司 AMVAC Netherlands BV 已与总部位于中国的辉丰农化有限公司的子公司上海福克斯生物科技有限公司合作，在香港成立一家专注于技术研发的合资企业。
这家企业， Huifeng AMVAC Innovation Co., Limited 将专注于共同所有者之间的技术转让，包括开发新的专有农用化学品配方和用于作物保护的精准施药系统。
Through a series of joint service agreements, Huifeng AMVAC Innovation Co., Limited will provide a platform for the co-owners to leverage each company’s technological capabilities. Additionally, each owner will benefit from the other party’s established market experience in their respective home territories. Such deep understanding of diverse market segments in Asia and the Americas provides the owners with an outstanding foundation for continued international success. The new venture is structured with each party owning 50% and it is expected that this entity will grow through additive technology investments in upcoming years. AMVAC’s Asia President, Lawrence Yu, will assume overall responsibility for the company as the Managing Director supported by Ms. Li Ping as CFO.
Mr. Eric Wintemute, Chairman & CEO of American Vanguard commented: “This new venture is a springboard for our strategic international expansion initiative. In Huifeng, we have found a highly successful, innovative technology-based, extremely well-positioned partner with which to pursue a mutually beneficial collaboration. Huifeng’s president, Mr. Zhong Hangen has led his company to become one of the fastest growing, most profitable and dynamic agrochemical companies in China. He has placed a premium on innovative technology development and excellent marketing capabilities. I believe that this technology-focused joint venture will lead to a broader range of market access and coordinated supply possibilities that will allow both companies to truly expand their horizons.”
汇丰农化总裁兼创始人钟汉根先生评论道：“此次合资将使汇丰与一家在美洲市场占有重要地位的非常成功的作物保护公司密切合作。 AMVAC 显然拥有技术人才、制造能力和产品组合，可以为这种合作伙伴关系做出巨大贡献。在全球范围内拥有许多巨大的增长机会，我期待看到这家企业随着更多的技术投资而扩大和发展。我预计，为各种有前途的精密应用和专有化学项目增加的资金可能证明在几年内在该合资企业将服务的区域领土上额外资助 $5000 万美元是合理的。我们希望这些项目能够迅速有效地进行。”
