QUFU, China, June 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunwin Stevia
International, Inc. (OTCQB: SUWN, "Sunwin Stevia"), one of the top
global suppliers of high quality stevia extracts including
Rebaudioside A 98 and Rebaudioside A99, announced today that Qufu
Shengren Pharmaceutical Company, Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary
of Sunwin Stevia, has passed Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit
(SMETA).
SMETA is designed to reduce duplication of effort in ethical
trade auditing, benefitting retailers, consumer brands, and
their suppliers. It was developed in response to member demand for
an ethical audit report format that could more easily be
shared.
Sedex offers a simple and effective way of managing ethical and
responsible practices in your supply chain. Sedex provides an
efficient and cost effective way of sharing ethical information
with multiple customers, helping cut down on unnecessary paperwork
and saving time and money. Suppliers complete one
self-assessment questionnaire and can choose to share this with
multiple customers on Sedex, along with any other relevant ethical
information, such as audit reports and certifications. The Sedex
system is secure and confidential and suppliers have complete
control over who can view their data.
Ms. Dongdong Lin, CEO of Sunwin
Stevia stated, "Being a SMETA member allows Sunwin to share the
same data with many customers, reduce the need for multiple audits,
as well as allow the company to concentrate on making real
improvements. Management believes its stevia products can enter
more retail markets as a SMETA member by maximizing distribution
potential of stevia products from wholesale level to retail
level."
