The amount of connected transactions is huge. How to avoid risks? Zhou Hui said, “First of all, these enterprises are our long-term partners, and many of them were already our customers before we entered China Resources. Second, the customers we selected are some dealers in the front of all regions, and the company has a strict customer management and screening system. Third, we have strict monitoring and management measures for collection and return, and we will do it in advance Some investigations, including credit and financial status, we will also monitor the implementation of their agreement at any time.

According to the previous report of the daily economic news, the price of traditional Chinese medicine has risen sharply since 2020.

At the same time, some products will also consider moderate price increase, such as traditional Chinese medicine formula granule products. In addition, the new national standards for some products have been implemented, which has also brought some success This price has increased, so we still hope to increase the price moderately. Of course, we should also consider the acceptance of terminal patients. “
impact geometry of centralized collection of Chinese patent medicine?
In the past 2021, Guangdong and Hubei successively took the lead in carrying out volume procurement of Chinese patent medicine regional alliance.

Zhou Hui said that generally speaking, the number of varieties included in centralized purchase by the company is still relatively small, and the impact on the business is relatively limited. “The three injection varieties are non exclusive varieties, which account for a relatively small proportion of the company’s revenue at present, and the impact is not particularly great if they are included in centralized purchase. At the same time, the selected varieties will also bring a certain amount of guarantee, which is an acceptable result on the whole. If the oral products are mainly aimed at the retail market, the hospital market has done less, and the impact of not winning this time is limited.” Zhou Hui said.
