FU JI

FU JI adopts a centralised management system where common business functions are performed at centralised locations, mostly in Shanghai. This centralised operation improves the communication of various departments and enhances the quality of our food products and services.

The centralised system is the platform currently supporting FU JI's entire business and is the platform on which we intend to develop and further expand.

A strategically centralised management system is FU JI's key success factor. Our Central Procurement Department sources and purchases all the ingredients and raw materials required by our different business operations. Currently, where possible, we procure the food ingredients from origin sources. It brings us substantial benefits in terms of economies of scale. Bulk purchasing also gives us strong bargaining power and allows us to ensure the foods we provide are of consistent good quality.

Food and ingredients purchased are delivered at first instance directly to our restaurants and Central Processing Centres in Shanghai (Sunqiao) and Suzhou for guaranteed freshness and quality. These Central Processing Centres prepare food and food products for our Catering Services, restaurants, and convenience food businesses. Centralised management and resources sharing not only allow us to achieve economies of scale and enhance operational efficiency, but also help us reduce overall production costs. This model, encompassing stringent control every step of the way, also enables the Group to easily standardise products put out by separate preparatory divisions.

We intend to establish processing centres at each of the regions we operate. This can ensure the consistency of quality and hygiene of our food products and achieve greater operational efficiency.

Good hygiene is critical in ensuring food safety. Serving hundreds of thousands of workers and executives daily, FU JI spares no effort on ascertaining the quality of ours food products adhering to the highest hygienic standards. We put the well being of our customers first, that is where our reputation rests on.

We engage independent specialists to monitor our compliance with international food hygienic standards. We will also adopt different recognised food standards in our operation processes (e.g. GMP^#, ISO14000, ISO9000 and SOP).

FU JI has set up a standardisation department to formulate, monitor and maintain standards for our different operations. The department is also responsible for ensuring that HACCP* approved procedures are diligently implemented. Currently, both of our Sungiao and Suzhou processing centers are HACCP certified. In addition, a number of our suppliers have been certified by Green Food, HACCP or other internationally recognised standards.

^#GMP, Good Manufacturing Practice, is a regulatory standard issued by the State Food and Drug Administration in respect of both the food and pharmaceutical production industry.

*HACCP is an internationally accepted standard recognised by the World Health Organisation & the Food and Agriculture Organisatoin of the United Nations as one of the most efficient control systems on the quality of food products.

To guarantee the delivery of the best quality food products to our customers, we are meticulous in our logistic approaches and procedures. From planning and control of procurement, inventory and production to delivery of products, our entire supply chain is supported a well-tested and optimized logistic infrastructure. This infrastructure is scalable allowing us to maintain the same high operational standards as we grow.

"Pursuit of professionalism" is the underlying drive of FU JI's speedy development from a small restaurant operator into the largest domestic Catering Service provider in Shanghai. Our collective vision is what guided our business expansion and our leading expertise is the foundation of our growth and success. With the ability to identify high potential areas and implement effective growth strategy, our management keeps FU JI ahead in the industry.

Sparing no effort and resources in strengthening our workforce, we boasts a high caliber professional team, promising superb quality products and services. Our people, at all levels, vow to apply their talents and creativity to keep our customers satisfied at all times.
