SkyPeople's rapid growth is due in large part to our strong research and development efforts. Currently, the Research department of SkyPeople is staffed with nearly 40 employees and retains external experts and research institutions. In recent years, we have undertaken over 70 state and provincial level research projects, including various projects specifically developed for the National 863 Project, a large government-sponsored economic initiative, and for the Ministry of Science. Our R&D staff has published over 400 research articles in domestic and international industry journals and newspapers.
SkyPeople owns a full range of fruit product research and development facilities. The Company holds the patent for a device that crushes fruit and separates the peel (Patent No.: ZL200620078461.1) and has developed kiwi concentrated clear juice production technologies.
