We remain steadfast in our epidemic prevention and control efforts, undaunted by the spring cold snap. In recent days, our province has coordinated epidemic response with economic and social development, with all localities and departments seizing the spring season to work diligently and pressing ahead with production. Across the Yanzhao region, the resumption of work and production has now fully entered spring.
Following the outbreak, pharmaceutical companies across the province swiftly ramped up production. Companies such as Huayao, Shiyao, Yiling Pharmaceutical, and Shenwei Pharmaceutical all forwent holiday breaks to ensure a steady and ample supply of medicines was continuously delivered to the front lines of epidemic prevention and control.
Among them, Shijiazhuang Sihua Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. has promptly adjusted its production schedule, operating its equipment around the clock to expand capacity and build up inventory. In light of the current global pandemic situation, Sihua Pharmaceutical is ensuring both the production and supply of emergency medicines and routine pharmaceuticals while maintaining robust export sales. Now, let’s connect with our reporter on the ground at Sihua Pharmaceutical for more details.
 
 
Reporter
I am currently in the intravenous solution production workshop of Shijiazhuang No. 4 Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. Although it is already late in the evening, the workshop is brightly lit. More than a hundred employees are working diligently and in an orderly manner. Right beside me, boxes of PP plastic-bottle intravenous solutions are continuously rolling off the production line and being stored in the warehouse.
We have just learned that these products will soon be exported to countries in Africa and Southeast Asia. Next, we have invited Mr. Li Bo, Manager of the Foreign Trade Department at Shijiazhuang Sihua Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., to provide an overview of the company’s current production status.

Currently, Shijiazhuang Sihua Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. has fully resumed production and operations. In addition to continuing to ensure the production of emergency epidemic-control medications, all other production lines are now operating at full capacity on two shifts. The company’s flagship product—large-volume intravenous solutions—is now being shipped from the warehouse at a daily rate of over 4.5 million bottles, returning to normal production levels.

So, what about the foreign trade export situation?
 
Li Bo
The company adheres to a dual-channel sales strategy. Currently, our international sales team primarily engages with overseas customers and conducts business negotiations via telephone, email, and other digital channels. In the first two months of this year, the company’s international sales continued to post double-digit growth.

We have just learned that many of the epidemic-prevention medications produced by Shisi Pharmaceutical have played a highly effective and positive role in the fight against the pandemic. Have you considered exporting these products to international markets?
 
Li Bo
Currently, while continuing to excel in our standard export product portfolio, we have placed particular emphasis on intensifying international marketing efforts for antiviral and antibacterial pharmaceuticals developed during the pandemic—such as Arbidol capsules, moxifloxacin hydrochloride sodium chloride injection, and the company’s disinfectant products. At present, in response to the specific needs of overseas customers, we are collaborating closely with them to carry out the requisite preliminary market-access activities for these products.
 
Reporter
We also believe that, through the concerted efforts of large enterprises such as Shisi Pharmaceutical, critical epidemic-prevention medicines will continue to meet the demands of both domestic and international markets, thereby providing a solid guarantee for overcoming the pandemic.
