On May 6, 2026, the Human & Pet Nutrition Technology Linkage Conference, hosted by Plant Extract Bridge, grandly kicked off in Shanghai. Lasting for two days, the conference themed "Advancing Human-Pet Co-development, Co-creating the Future of Nutritional Technology" gathered more than 30 industry leaders and innovative practitioners. Participants conducted in-depth discussions on core topics including the development trends of the pet food industry, the application of functional raw materials, iterative product innovation, evidence-based scientific research, and opportunities brought by industry regulations. The event actively promoted the in-depth integration and practical application of cutting-edge human-use technologies and raw material technologies in the pet food sector, injecting new momentum into the high-quality development of the industry.
As one of China’s leading CDMO enterprises specializing in pet nutritional products, YABO was invited to attend this influential industry summit. At the conference, Mr. Hou Weinan, Production and Operation Director of YABO, delivered a keynote speech on behalf of the company. With the theme of "How Pet Nutrition CDMO Enterprises Implement Design-Driven Product Development", he thoroughly reviewed YABO’s development journey and practical experience in the pet nutrition sector, systematically elaborated the company’s core product strategy, platform layout and product design philosophy, and demonstrated YABO’s professional and systematic CDMO service capabilities to the industry.
During the sharing session, Mr. Hou offered an in-depth interpretation of YABO’s core development philosophy of "product originates from design". He comprehensively explained the company’s product design logic from three core dimensions — quality, cost and innovation, providing valuable insights and references for all attendees.
I. Quality by Design: Full-process Strict Quality Control
YABO insists on moving risk prevention and control forward to the early stage of product research and development, and has established a full-chain, all-round quality control system covering raw material procurement, material management, standardized production processes and finished product factory inspection. Through full-process risk prediction and stringent quality management, the company fundamentally ensures stable product quality, safety and compliance, while optimizing product quality and reducing quality-related costs.
II. Cost by Design: Delivering Higher Cost Performance
Leveraging its mature production and operation system, YABO has built a collaborative development model integrating standardized modularization and flexible production. It realizes standardization, modularization and generalization in every link including raw material selection, packaging adaptation, production equipment and technological processes to achieve cost reduction and efficiency improvement. On the premise of guaranteeing product quality, YABO optimizes the entire production chain to provide partners with high cost-performance product solutions.
III. Innovation by Design: Building Differentiated Competitiveness
YABO steadily conducts category research in segmented sectors and drives product innovation through a four-dimensional research system consisting of market research, symptom decomposition, raw material evidence verification and competitor analysis, in response to evolving market consumption demands. With evidence-based scientific nutrition research, the company develops differentiated and actionable pet nutrition product solutions, helping brand clients break free from homogeneous market competition.
With years of in-depth cultivation in the pet nutrition track, YABO has always taken scientific research as its core support and gradually built a comprehensive category research system. Focusing on 11 core body systems of dogs and cats, the company has developed 14 independent functional nutrition categories, fully covering the whole-life-cycle nutritional needs of pets from infancy and adulthood to old age. Supported by four core platforms in technology, production, products and sales, YABO adheres to the strategy that products define core competitiveness. It focuses on providing one-stop, high-quality, compliant and differentiated CDMO solutions for pet nutrition brands.
