Anson Fong, chairman of Sino Green Land, highlighted the company’s ability to more than double year-over-year sales through strategic marketing initiatives and scalable business model. Fong said Sino Green Land also expanded relationships with farmers across China which allowed the company to guarantee the farmers an outlet for their products.

“In turn, we work closely with these farmers to enhance their productivity, such as providing them with advanced technology that will increase their crop yields. As a result of these relationships, we are able to sell the highest quality food at very attractive prices. Moreover, as sales increased, we gained meaningful operating leverage as reflected by the sharp increase in both our operating and net profit margins,” Fong stated in the press release.

Operating income increased 36.3 percent to $6.9 million for the 12 months ended December 31, 2009, compared to $5.1 million for the 12 months ended December 31, 2008.

Fong also noted the company’s position to capitalize on the trend for healthy foods through its China Green Food Distribution Hub.

“Sino Green Land is well-positioned to take advantage of the growing demand for healthy foods. We are well underway constructing the China Green Food Distribution Hub, an enormous marketplace and the first of its kind to centralize distribution of green foods in China. The new distribution hub will be open to retailers and wholesalers beginning in the second half of 2010. The ChinaGreen Food Distribution Hub will span 20 thousand square meters in Guangzhou, one of the most populated regions of China, where it will serve the Pearl River Delta, Hong Kong and Macao,” Fong stated.
