“In fiscal 2011, we achieved record financial performance and reported double-digit growth in revenue and net income,” said China Nutrifruit’s CEO, Changjun Yu. “We expect continued strong financial performance in fiscal year 2012 largely driven by anticipated growth in demand for our products combined with launch of our new fruit and vegetable powder products and concentrate paste products.”

The firm is currently constructing a concentrate paste production facility in Zhaoyuan, Heilongjiang Province. Trial production on the facility is expected to begin next month. The plant will have an annual production capacity of 9,600 tons.
