How can you navigate the risks and challenges to realise the enormous opportunities of the Chinese pharma market? Gain insights from experts with on-the-ground experience of the Chinese market and specialist knowledge of the pharma supply chain by listening on-demand to the recent webinar hosted by Packaging Europe and DS Smith - and download the exclusive, complimentary report.
China has become one of the world’s foremost drivers for global production and demand (6.6 per cent GDP increase in 2018). With more available income and an ageing population the demand on public health products and services in the country is booming. However, this growing market is also targeted with counterfeit products, raising the awareness of the need for quality. Big pharmaceutical players entering China must overcome some specific challenges and cannot rely on the usual strategies employed in Western economies.
DS Smith has deployed a specialised Pharmaceutical & Medical business unit with a team of strategists and a dedicated value proposition to offer a range of solutions all along the supply chain, worldwide, including China.
Listen to our webinar (broadcast live on 27th June 2019) in order to:
- Building a strategy for the Chinese pharma market
- Gain key insights on the trends in the market
- Get to know best practices and examples of business models in this context
