Background
The Board of Jatenergy Limited (JAT) is pleased to announce that it has agreed, subject to shareholder approval, to purchase a controlling 51% interest in Sunnya Pty. Ltd (Sunnya), an Australian exporter with a portfolio of milk powders and health products currently selling in China.
“The acquisition of Sunnya will broaden our in-house product range substantially,” JAT Executive Director Wilton Yao said. “We see great potential, combining Sunnya products and JAT distribution capacity. These products are already selling into China and we will boost their sales by combining with our Chinese online platforms and offline distribution channels.”
Sunnya has developed branded product ranges for health, maternal and baby markets in China. Key product ranges include:
-
a) NEURIO – Lactoferrin Milk Powder, DHA Algae Oil Softgel, and Probiotics Liquid, primarily selling in maternal and baby stores and local supermarkets.
-
b) RAICARE Goat Premium Infant Formula – An application for CFDA approval to continue sales under the new regulatory regime has been lodged.
“The directors of Sunnya also bring extensive expertise in the research and development of new dairy products, infant formulas, and other health products,” Mr. Yao said. “We are looking forward to working closely with the personnel of Sunnya to develop more products to offer the market in the near future.”
