Zhongpin receives millions in government cash subsidies

Zhongpin Inc, a leading meat and food processing company in the People’s Republic of China, reported it has received two payments totaling RMB 21.4 million (about $3.1 million) in cash subsidies from the Chinese government.

Zhongpin has recently received a subsidy cash payment of RMB 20 million (about $ 2.9 million) from the Chinese government to help support the development of its new plant in Tianjin. The new plant, which is under construction, will produce chilled and frozen pork and is expected to be completed in the first quarter 2010. When all the construction phases are completed in 2010, the new Tianjin plant will have a total annual capacity of 100,000 metric tons for chilled and frozen pork products.

China – encouraging meat processing companies
China’s policies in 2009 have encouraged meat processing companies to further modernize and improve products and processes. As Zhongpin previously announced, China’s National Development and Reform Commission approved subsidies on 2009 for Zhongpin’s three new pork processing projects, one project in Tianjin and two projects in Changge.

We have worked very diligently to lead the way, because we believe that our innovation is in the absolute best interests of our customers and our investors.
