BANGKOK, Sept. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Yili Group’s Thailand subsidiary has received
the Thailand Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Quality Award for the seventh consecutive
year, earning the program’s highest distinction, the "Best of the Best" Award, for

Presented by Thailand’s FDA under the Ministry of Public Health, the Thailand FDA
Quality Award is one of the country’s most prestigious official honors in the food
and drug sector. Its evaluation covers raw material traceability, smart manufacturing,
end-to-end product testing, cold-chain storage and distribution, and corporate social
responsibility. The award recognizes outstanding companies selected from thousands
of food enterprises across Thailand through document reviews, on-site inspections
by expert panels, multiple rounds of rigorous sampling tests and comprehensive capability
assessments. The "Best of the Best" distinction is reserved for companies that demonstrate
top-tier overall quality, operational excellence and regulatory compliance.

Guided by Yili Group Chairman and President Pan Gang’s vision of leveraging global
resources to better serve consumers, Yili is extending its quality standards and
management systems worldwide. In Thailand, the company complies with local regulations
and international standards while strengthening quality management. It has introduced
Yili’s quality management tools and ERP system to enable digital oversight from 
raw material procurement through production, warehousing and logistics. It has also
upgraded pretreatment systems and reinforced employee training and critical control
point management.

Yili’s ice cream brand Cremo has become a popular choice among Thai consumers. Responding
to local preferences, Yili has developed products including rabbit-ear-shaped ice
cream and varieties featuring ingredients such as nata de coco and pandan. These
innovations have enriched the product experience, earned market recognition and 
strengthened Cremo’s presence in Thailand.

Yili has also become increasingly integrated into Thailand’s economy and local communities.
Local sourcing now accounts for 80% of raw and auxiliary materials, while Thai employees
represent 95% of its workforce. In August, Yili launched a community initiative 
and donated 150,000 Cremo ice cream products to the Thai government, further demonstrating
its commitment to corporate social responsibility.

Thailand is a key consumer market in Southeast Asia, with stringent market-entry
requirements and intense competition. Yili’s experience demonstrates how sustained
quality management and localized operations can support long-term growth in overseas
markets.

Looking ahead, Yili will continue expanding across Southeast Asia and other global
markets, uphold consistent quality standards, and refine localized products and 
services as it advances its vision of "World Integrally Sharing Health."
