Daehan New Pharm’s export markets are divided into three major regions: CIS, Southeast Asia, and Latin America. First, exports to Russia and CIS countries, including emerging markets, continue to grow steadily. In 2012 alone, Daehan New Pharm achieved 1.5 million USD in exports from a single product line.

Initially limited to markets such as Ethiopia and Japan, the company began expanding into Southeast and South Asia in 2009 and has recently entered new markets by supplying feed additives to Iraq and Taiwan. With its core principles of focus, specialization, and globalization, Daehan New Pharm continues to expand its global network based on the proven quality, brand recognition, and extensive export expertise acknowledged worldwide.
