This award is generally considered to be a high recognition given to pharmaceutical companies in China for outstanding product and process quality. China Biologic's two subsidiaries, Shandong Taibang Biological Products Co., Ltd. ("Shandong Taibang") and Guiyang Qianfeng Biological Products Co., Ltd. (the company's name was recently changed, it is now named Guizhou Taibang Biological Products Co., Ltd.) ("Guizhou Taibang"), are among the 17 companies to be awarded in 2011. The CQAP chose the 17 final awardees in 2011 based on its inspections and evaluations of a group of selected pharmaceutical companies recommended by the local and provincial governments and chapters of the CQAP. The awards will be presented on April 15, 2011 at a national pharmaceutical industry quality management training seminar in Beijing hosted by the CQAP.
