On April 30, the very day Jiahe Food Industry Co., Ltd. was listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, the company invited academicians and experts to jointly launch the Zero Trans Fatty Acids Action Plan, exploring new industrial models and promoting industrial transformation and upgrading.
The launching ceremony was witnessed by Academician Chen Junshi, Chief Advisor of the National Center for Food Safety Risk Assessment, Ji Hengyi, Deputy District Mayor of Wujiang District, and other guests. Professor Wang Xingguo from Jiangnan University was appointed as the Chief Advisor of this action plan. The plan aims to deepen cooperation between enterprises and university experts, gather strengths from all sectors, and jointly open a new chapter for industry development.
Chairman Liu Xinrong stated that Jiahe Food has been deeply engaged in the food ingredients sector for 20 years. Since its early establishment, the company has launched research on zero-trans fatty acid powdered oil products. In particular, its non-hydrogenated powdered oil series has provided brand-new solutions for innovative applications in the industry. By appointing Professor Wang Xingguo of Jiangnan University as Chief Advisor of the action plan and signing industry-university-research cooperation agreements, the company will empower industrial development through scientific and technological innovation and achievement transformation, earnestly implement the action plan, and jointly create a new blueprint for industry progress.
Academician Chen Junshi emphasized that China has now achieved complete poverty alleviation, and people no longer worry about food and clothing. The next step is to pursue nutritious and healthy diets to safeguard national health. By actively fulfilling its social responsibilities and launching the Zero Trans Fatty Acids Action Plan, Jiahe Food has taken concrete steps toward higher nutritional and health value, which will surely set a new trend for industry development.
In his speech, Chief Advisor Professor Wang Xingguo pointed out that the Zero Trans Fatty Acids Action Plan represents a commitment from a socially responsible enterprise. The WHO has put forward action proposals to achieve the global goal of eliminating trans fats by 2023. Starting from the industry, Jiahe Food has empowered industrial development with technology and innovation, achieved the strategic "zero trans fat" target for specialty food oils one year ahead of schedule, thoroughly resolved the issue of trans fatty acids, and realized the company’s sustainable development.
Jiahe Food's Zero Trans Fatty Acids Action Plan will be implemented in five major aspects: establishing and improving the standard system, strengthening capacity for process innovation, enhancing the monitoring and evaluation of risk indicators such as trans fatty acids, intensifying R&D on healthy and nutritious food products, and vigorously conducting publicity and education on nutrition and health knowledge. Starting from the source, the company will join hands with scientific research institutions to develop special oils free of trans fatty acids and honor its commitments.
