Recently, Unipharm Healthy Manufacturing Co. was officially awarded the prestigious FernMark license by the New Zealand government in recognition of its outstanding performance in the health product manufacturing industry.
This milestone not only affirms Unipharm’s long-standing commitment to quality but also marks a significant step in strengthening its international brand presence.
FernMark: The Official Stamp of New Zealand Qualit
The FernMark license is issued and governed by New Zealand Trade and Enterprise (NZTE). Represented by the iconic Silver Fern, it endorses brands that have a genuine connection to New Zealand and promotes the national brand globally as a symbol of trust and authenticity.
Earning this certification means the brand is officially recognized by the New Zealand government, enhancing consumer confidence and supporting the company’s expansion in international markets.
A Legacy of Excellence in Health Manufacturing
Founded in 1979, Unipharm brings nearly 50 years of experience in the contract development and manufacturing (CDMO) of health and nutrition products. The company specializes in dairy, botanicals, and marine ingredients, offering a wide range of dosage forms including softgels, hard capsules, tablets, powders, probiotics, and drops.
As an export-oriented manufacturer, Unipharm has a strong presence in global markets, especially in Asia. Its Antarctic krill oil softgel capsules lead the Chinese market and rank among the top globally.
Empowering Growth with Certification
The FernMark license brings multiple advantages. In markets like Asia where country-of-origin matters, the certification significantly enhances brand recognition.
It also strengthens Unipharm’s “Made in New Zealand” credibility in negotiations with global brand owners and distributors. Additionally, it provides stronger validation when dealing with regulatory bodies such as Chinese customs, supporting smoother import/export processes.
Certified Through Rigorous Evaluation
Gaining the FernMark license required Unipharm to undergo a stringent evaluation process overseen by the New Zealand government.
Every step—from raw material sourcing to product R&D, manufacturing, storage, and logistics—had to meet New Zealand’s strict legal and quality standards. The evaluation also considered the applicant’s domestic reputation and international commercial credibility, underscoring the high standard of the certification.
Staying True to Our Values, Embracing Global Growth
A representative from Unipharm stated: “Being awarded the FernMark is the best recognition of our team’s years of dedication. It’s not just a symbol—it’s a responsibility. We will continue to uphold the values of purity, safety, and sustainability to deliver high-quality health products to the world, while helping to promote the trusted image of New Zealand-made goods.”
