Fortway Chemicals Co., Limited was established in Shanghai with a clear mission: to be the bridge between China's best food ingredient manufacturers and global buyers who demand quality, reliability, and competitive pricing. Our founder, Michael Chan, brought years of purchasing expertise from Atlantic Chemicals Trading, understanding firsthand the challenges importers face when sourcing from China.
What started as a small trading operation has grown into a trusted sourcing partner for manufacturers, distributors, and trading companies across 90+ countries. By 2015, our turnover exceeded $50 million USD, with established product lines spanning sweeteners, vitamins, acidulants, preservatives, thickeners, and specialty ingredients.
In 2016, we founded NewSeed Chemical Co., Limited to expand into nutritional and specialty ingredient markets. Today, our team combines deep industry knowledge with long-standing factory relationships to deliver a complete sourcing solution — from manufacturer selection and price negotiation to quality verification, documentation, and logistics.
