Jiangsu Fengshan Group

What Jiangsu Fengshan Group does

Jiangsu Fengshan Group (江苏丰山集团股份有限公司) is a Chinese agrochemical manufacturer founded in 1988 and publicly listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange under ticker 603810 since September 2018. The company produces technical-grade active ingredients (APIs) and formulated end-use products spanning herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators, with dominant global positions in trifluralin (>60% market share) and quizalofop-p-ethyl (~40% market share). Annual production capacity is approximately 23,000 tons of synthetic technical products and 20,000 tons of formulations, distributed across a wholly-owned manufacturing base in Yancheng, Jiangsu. The company employs 1,001–5,000 staff including 115+ R&D personnel (14 with PhD/Master's degrees) operating a Shanghai-based OECD GLP-certified testing laboratory, with research collaborations with Tsinghua University, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Nankai University.

Revenue is generated through B2B quotation-based pricing across two primary streams: technical product (API) sales (~9 billion RMB historical) and formulated product sales (~4 billion RMB historical), with total revenue of approximately 13 billion RMB reported in the 2018–2019 period. Distribution combines direct enterprise field sales (10 regional sales departments covering all 34 Chinese provinces through Jiangsu Fengshan Agrochemical) and self-operated export operations (Nanjing Fengshan Chemical reaching 50+ countries). Pricing is contract-negotiated; the company does not publish rates. Senior leadership, including the chairman, conducts direct visits to key accounts across major agricultural provinces. The company is founder-controlled: Yin Fengshan has served as Chairman since founding, with his daughter Yin Ping as Vice Chairman and President.

In 2022 the group diversified beyond crop protection into adjacent specialty chemicals, establishing Jiangsu Fengshan Quannuo New Energy Technology (a JV with Nantong Quannuo) for lithium-ion and sodium-ion battery electrolytes with planned 50,000 tons/year capacity, and Hubei Fengshan New Materials Technology (wholly-owned) for toluene chloride fine chemicals with 100,000 tons/year capacity. The 2018 IPO raised approximately 574.78 million RMB, and management has publicly stated a target to increase foreign sales from 25% to 35% of total revenue within 3–5 years and to enter the global top tier of the agrochemical industry.
