As an active practitioner of the Belt and Road Initiative, Unicornshell has incorporated the Central Asian market into its global strategic layout. Leveraging its international certification advantages, including FDA, Halal, Kosher, and European BRC certifications, the company is gradually establishing regional influence. Relying on its technical and smart manufacturing capabilities in the field of plant-based pharmaceutical excipients, the company is accelerating the export of advanced processes to Central Asia to help local regions build independent production systems. This exchange has opened new pathways for pharmaceutical industry cooperation between China and Uzbekistan. Both parties will deepen technical and localized production cooperation, jointly provide safe and environmentally friendly pharmaceutical solutions, and collaborate with global partners to drive technological innovation and market expansion, thereby establishing a new international cooperation framework characterized by green, safe, and mutually beneficial outcomes.
