With the Chinese API Market Growing, CPhI China Assists Enterprises with Transformation, Innovation, and Comprehensive Upgrading

SHANGHAI, Dec. 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The CPhI & P-MEC China 2019 organized by UBM EMEA and China Chamber of Commerce for Import & Export of Medicines & Health Products (CCCMHPIE) and co-organized by Shanghai UBM Sinoexpo International Exhibition Co., Ltd. will be held at Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC) on June 18-20, 2019. CPhI China will help enterprises write a new chapter for pharmaceuticals and develop new patterns of international market transformation and upgrading.

As China continues to advance from a big country in pharmaceuticals to a power in pharmaceuticals, and the global economy maintains a good trend, the main business income of API manufacturing in China has reached RMB 499.1 billion, growing by 14.68% year on year; and the export of APIs has reached USD 29.1 billion, growing by 13.7% year on year. Under the background of the new round of economic structure adjustment and supply-side reform, the proportion of import and export of western medicine preparations and biochemical drug products that are of higher additional value continues to increase in western medicine trade, showing that the transformation and upgrading of China's pharmaceutical industry has taken a big step forward. The steadily progressing achievements and the unlimited potential demonstrate that China's pharmaceutical industry is marching on a road of sustainable and healthy development.
