HiSiaddi Foreign Trade Selection Delivery Case: Full Sodium Copper Chlorophyllin Brand Screening & Procurement Project for a Premium Spanish Dietary Supplement Group

I. Client Background (Pure Mid-to-High-End Purchaser)

Purchaser: NUTRAIBERIA Group, a premium dietary health enterprise headquartered in Barcelona, Spain. With 22 years of experience serving high-end dietary supplements, clinical medical mouthwash and organic skincare serum sectors across the Iberian Peninsula, its products are sold at organic counters of Carrefour Spain, private medical aesthetic clinics in Madrid and premium Portuguese pharmacy chain FARMACIA EL CORTE. All raw materials comply with EFSA, REACH, USP Pharmacopoeia and AEMPS Spanish drug administration access standards. Its three core premium product lines are oral liver-protection capsules, weakly acidic medical mouthwash and plant repair serums, targeting high-net-worth Western European consumers. The group maintains a stable annual procurement volume of 13 tons of sodium copper chlorophyllin, previously sourced exclusively from high-purity German imported sodium copper chlorophyllin.

Continuous price hikes and extended lead times up to 85 days for European local raw materials pushed the client to pursue domestic Chinese substitution. The client independently contacted 5 leading domestic sodium copper chlorophyllin manufacturers for quotations and sample delivery, yet all manufacturers only promoted their own products, refusing objective discussion of peer brand strengths. Each solely highlighted the advantages of its own product lines while avoiding weaknesses, leaving the client unable to distinguish grades, models and matching differences of domestic brands – including general food-grade, high-purity pharmaceutical-grade and microcapsule modified cosmetic-grade variants with inconsistent parameters, raw material sources and internal control indicators. Six trial samples all suffered compatibility issues including dissolved precipitation, excessive free copper and storage fading, halting brand selection. The client entrusted HiSiaddi to conduct neutral research on mainstream domestic brands, conduct horizontal benchmarking of products and screen 2 matching brands with 3 segmented models for procurement delivery.

II. Core Pain Points Encountered by the Client During Independent Factory Sourcing

1.

Brand-biased sales from manufacturers lacking neutral horizontal comparison The client sequentially contacted 5 leading manufacturers: Zhejiang Xinhua Chemical, Jiangsu Zhongdan Group, Xi’an Lvquan Biotech, Shandong Jinshi Biotech and Changsha Shanghe Biotech. Sales representatives of each manufacturer only elaborated advantages of their own full product lines without objective explanation of competitors’ strengths: manufacturers specializing in pharmaceutical-grade products omitted cost advantages of food-grade suppliers, while microcapsule modification specialists ignored stable mass production performance of general-grade products, preventing the client from horizontal cross-brand comparison.

2.

3.

Unstandardized product model naming leading to high blind trial costs Domestic brands lack unified national standard model naming rules. Products all labeled "pharmaceutical grade" show massive gaps in color value, free copper and powder particle size control across manufacturers. Without a domestic raw material database, the client could not identify falsely labeled parameters solely based on factory COAs, incurring high R&D costs from blind sampling trials.

4.

5.

Three core application scenarios require segmented model matching, impossible to fully covered by a single brand Liver-protection capsules require high-purity pharmaceutical grade with low free copper; weak acid mouthwash requires specialized acid-resistant modified grade; skincare serums require microcapsule low-odour cosmetic grade. No single factory product line can simultaneously meet the differentiated indicators of all three segments, yet all manufacturers pushed the client to purchase a single universal grade from their own factories, creating hidden production risks.

6.

III. Neutral Research of 5 Leading Domestic Brands & Full Mainstream Model Horizontal Inventory by HiSiaddi

Combined with the client’s three end-product applications (oral capsules / mouthwash / skincare serums), HiSiaddi conducted on-site verification of production lines, testing qualifications and export measured data across 5 brands, and neutrally sorted core advantages and weaknesses without bias toward any manufacturer:

1. Zhejiang Xinhua Chemical (National Industry Leader, Top Market Share)

1. Xi’an Lvquan Biotech (Organic Raw Material Customization Manufacturer)

· Mainstream Models: LQ-O Organic Acid-Resistant Modified Grade, LQ-F Basic Food Grade

· Advantages: Self-built Qinling organic silkworm mulberry bases; cyclodextrin coated LQ-O acid-resistant modified grade prevents precipitation at pH 5.0 weak acid environments, developed exclusively for liquid mouthwash with solvent residues <1ppm.

· Weaknesses: Limited production capacity with 30~40 day lead times; high-purity pharmaceutical grade output is low with premium pricing, creating stocking pressure for large-batch procurement.

1. Changsha Shanghe Biotech (Balanced Full-Category Manufacturer)

· Mainstream Models: SH-M General Pharmaceutical Grade, SH-F High-Coloring Food Grade

· Advantages: Complete qualifications (ISO22000, KOSHER, HALAL), balanced full-category product portfolio, flexible small-batch customization, convenient third-party SGS sample testing.

· Weaknesses: Mediocre specialized performance across all segments, no top-tier high-purity pharmaceutical grades or dedicated microcapsule modified grades, unable to deliver optimal matching for all three end-product categories.

IV. Two Brands & Three Delivery Models Selected by HiSiaddi for Precise Scenario Matching Based on Client Demand

Combined with differentiated indicators for the client’s three product lines (capsules + mouthwash + skincare serums), we abandoned the single-brand full-package solution and selectively combined two mid-to-high-end brands: Jiangsu Zhongdan + Xi’an Lvquan, totaling three segmented models with split raw material allocation by scenario:

Brand 1: Jiangsu Zhongdan Group, Model ZD-P Pharmacopoeia High-Purity Grade – Exclusively for Oral Liver-Protection Softgels

1. Parameter Matching: Stable free copper 2.4~2.9ppm, color value E405≥630, heavy metal lead <1.8ppm, all indicators meeting Spain’s AEMPS dietary raw material standards.

2. Delivery Advantages: Traceable organic mulberry leaf raw materials, capable of supplementary DMF filing documentation, compatible with the client’s automatic softgel filling production lines with uniformly sieved 200-mesh powder eliminating screen blockage risks.

3. Annual Procurement Allocation: 5.5 tons per year.

Brand 2: Xi’an Lvquan Biotech, Two Segmented Models LQ-O Acid-Resistant Modified Grade + LQ-W Simplified Microcapsule Grade for Two Separate Scenarios

1. LQ-O Organic Acid-Resistant Modified Grade – Exclusively for Weak Acid Medical Mouthwash (pH5.2~5.6) Cyclodextrin coating modification prevents flocculent precipitation after 6 months storage in weak acid environments, fully resolving turbidity and precipitation defects encountered by the client with earlier domestic raw material trials. Annual procurement volume: 4.5 tons.

2. LQ-W Simplified Microcapsule Grade – Exclusively for Premium Plant Repair Serums Low-temperature microcapsule technology eliminates grass and burnt odours; no stratification after 90 days compounding with vitamin C and plant flavonoids, delivering light resistance to prevent fading during storage & shipping, ideal for serum formulations. Annual procurement volume: 3 tons.

Total annual volume of the three models reaches 13 tons, perfectly matching the client’s total annual procurement demand.

V. Sample Verification & Bulk Delivery Procurement

1. HiSiaddi coordinated sample delivery of corresponding models from both manufacturers, and arranged full-item SGS testing under dual EU and Spanish drug administration standards. The client’s Spanish R&D laboratory conducted three full-formula machine trials covering softgel feeding, mouthwash compatibility and serum compounding accelerated stability testing, with all three raw material grades passing one-time compliance checks.

2. Finalized quarterly batch delivery plan: ZD-P from Zhongdan shipped in 4 consignments, LQ-O+LQ-W from Lvquan shipped in 5 consignments. HiSiaddi uniformly processed full supporting documents including REACH-SDS, CCPIT Free Sales Certificate with Spanish Embassy authentication and English COAs, consolidating shipments at Shanghai Port for ocean transport to Barcelona.

3. First consignment of 3.2 tons cleared customs smoothly upon arrival, with zero quality abnormalities after raw material warehousing and production, enabling timely launch of the client’s three premium product lines in Spanish pharmacies and medical aesthetic clinics.

VI. Subsequent Long-Term Cooperation Outcomes

1. The client fully eliminated German imported raw material supply and signed a 13-ton annual price-locked framework procurement contract for standardized recurring purchases of the two brands across three models.

2. Subsequent expansion into Chile’s premium South American channels entrusted HiSiaddi with advance brand benchmark screening for all new product raw materials, with sustained incremental small-batch customized organic grade orders.

VII. Project Summary

Domestic sodium copper chlorophyllin manufacturers follow divergent technical routes: pharmaceutical manufacturers specialize in high-purity grades, cosmetic factories excel in microcapsule technology, and customization manufacturers focus on acid-resistant modified grades. Yet the industry universally prioritizes promoting their own products without objective cross-brand comparison. Overseas mid-to-high-end brands operating parallel multi-product lines face high risks of improper raw material selection when sourcing independently. From a neutral third-party perspective, HiSiaddi horizontally disassembles the strengths and weaknesses of leading brands, breaking free from bundled single-factory sales limitations to conduct cross-brand combined selection aligned with end-formulation requirements, helping clients strike an optimal balance between quality, compliance and cost, and securing long-term repeat orders via objective professional brand selection services.
