Zhanjiang is a vibrant city located in southern China with a bustling port, a population of 7 million people, and a thriving economy. SGD Pharma has had a longstanding partnership with Zhanjiang city for over 25 years, and its manufacturing site specializing in Type II & III molded glass for Pharma and Beauty, is located here.
During the meetings, CEO Olivier Rousseau presented SGD Pharma's plan to make a significant investment in 2024 to rebuild the plant furnace, thus creating more jobs and providing room for further growth for the next 15 years. Mayor Zeng Jinze and Vice Mayor Zhang Renjian both showed particular interest in SGD Pharma's commitment to reduce its carbon footprint through better energy management and the use of green energy as Zhanjiang uses wind and solar power.

Mayor Zeng Jinze encouraged SGD Pharma to continue being an exemplary member of the Zhanjiang community, providing its employees with working conditions that respect all related laws in China. CEO Olivier Rousseau reaffirmed SGD Pharma's commitment to maintain its SA8000 certification, demonstrating its unwavering commitment to best practices in terms of both working environment and regulatory compliance.
Finally, both Mayor Zeng Jinze and Vice Mayor Zhang Renjian stressed the importance of mangrove preservation for Zhanjiang and the many benefits it brings to society in terms of biodiversity, carbon sync and protection of the coast. CEO Olivier Rousseau explained that SGD Pharma is fully aligned with this vision and has already started planting mangrove trees, with 1000 planted in 2022 by the company. On this trip alone, CEO Olivier Rousseau and COO Christophe Muguet led a team of SGD Pharma employees to plant a further 200 trees and committed to planting many more in the future.
