“Our entry into the Chinese market through Hutchison Hain Organic continues with Chi-Med’s highly regarded Zhi Ling Tong brand of infant products working together with our Earth’s Best brand,” said Irwin Simon, president and CEO of Hain Celestial.
The move is part of a joint venture between Hain Celestial and Chi-Med, which was announced nearly a year ago, creating a company called Hutchison Hain Organic Holdings. Hutchison Hain Organic began marketing and distributing other Hain Celestial products earlier this year through AS Watson and ParknShop stores in Asia.
