Shuanghui Group ()〔 is a privately owned meat processing company headquartered in Luohe, Henan, China.〔〔 Known as Shineway Group in English-speaking countries, the company's businesses include hog raising, consumer meat products, flavoring products, and logistics. It is the largest meat producer in China. Shuanghui has 13 facilities that produce more than 2.7 million tons of meat per year. It slaughters more than 15 million pigs a year, but only raises about 400,000 – the rest are purchased from suppliers.〔 It had revenue of US$6.24 billion in 2012.〔 The company holds more than 500 patents and produces 1,000 different products.〔 Wan Long, nicknamed China's "number one butcher" because of the large number of pigs the company slaughters, is the chairman of Shuanghui.〔 As of May 2013, Zhijun Yang is the managing director.〔 The company employs over 60,000 people and is 30% employee owned.〔 ==History== Shuanghui was set up by the local Luohe City Government in 1958 as a single processing plant.〔 Wan Long was appointed chairman in 1984.〔 Under Wan, the company has expanded aggressively. In his first year, he turned around a struggling company, bringing it from a net loss to a net profit of 5 million yuan ($1.7 million).〔 The company introduced its first branded meat product to the market in February 1992. Later that year, Shuanghui formed a joint venture with 16 institutional investors across six countries.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.shuanghui-international.com/ )〕 In 1994, the venture was incorporated as Shuanghui Group. Shuanghui subsidiary Henan Shuanghui Investment & Development Company Limited () was established and listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in 1998.〔〔(Henan Shuanghui Investment & Development )〕 In 2000, Shuanghui started a post-secondary educational-work research division.〔 By 2006, Shuanghui was the largest (by company value) food processor in China, and 131st largest company overall. The company was valued at $1.3 billion, and controlled more than 50% of China's high-temperature processed meat market at that time.〔 That year, Luohe State sold its share of Shuanghui to a joint venture of Goldman Sachs and private equity firm CDH Investments. Goldman Sachs later sold most of its share, reportedly for a large profit.〔 In 2011, state-owned CCTV revealed that Shuanghui pork contained clenbuterol, a banned chemical that can be harmful to humans.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shuanghui」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
