Beijing Sanyuan Foods set up the wholly-owned subsidiary Hebei Sanyuan Foods in Shijiazhuang on December 10, 2008 in the wake of the Melamine scandal that drove Sanlu Group into bankruptcy.
On December 29, 2008, Sanyuan signed contracts to rent six key Sanlu plants, and on March 4, 2009, Sanyuan bought Sanlu Group outright at auction.
The first batch of Hebei Sanyuan milk-powder products on sale includes nine varieties of infant and adult formula. The infant formula milk powder is made from fresh milk from the Beijing Luhe Cow Breeding Center, and other milk powder from eleven ranches around Shijiazhuang operated by the Beijing Luhe Cow Breeding Center.
The milk sources are directly linked to the dairy processing plants to ensure the quality and safety of the dairy products used, according to Hebei Sanyuan.
