Rochem International celebrated fifteen successful years by hosting a Seminar followed by an extraordinary appreciation dinner for leading suppliers of pharmaceutical and nutritional products in the beautiful coastal city of Qingdao.   The Seminar was hosted by Robyn Frisch, President and CEO of Rochem, accompanied by nearly a dozen of her U.S. and European based staff, along with her China team as well. The event was attended by key representatives from forty of China’s leading pharmaceutical and nutritional manufacturers. The aim of the seminar was to provide critical leadership to ensure their business operations meet the ever-increasing requirements of today’s customers and Western regulatory bodies. It also looked at what customer’s really value in a world which grows increasingly competitive every day. The dinner event which followed was kicked off by Robyn’s heart felt address, focusing on how Rochem’s success is based on trust, support and our ever strengthening “Bridge to the West” that she began building 15 years ago. The entire day’s events were a tremendous success, as Rochem continues to shine the spotlight on what really matters, that is- relationships built over time, that last a lifetime.
